[1] A member of the Conservative Party,[2] Borwick provided tech support for the successful Vote Leave campaign.
[6] Borwick read economics and finance at the University of Richmond, Virginia, graduating BA, BS,[7] before pursuing further studies at London Business School (MBA).
[8] Borwick worked for Cambridge Analytica and AggregateIQ, and was chief technology officer for Vote Leave before creating the campaigning group 3rd Party Ltd for influencing the outcome of the 2019 United Kingdom general election.
However, given that these ads were run both in swing (Plymouth) and non-swing constituencies (Oxford), the campaign may also have been intended for harvesting data on Green Party supporters.
[9] Borwick has also operated numerous other tech companies, including Disruptive Communications Ltd, which he started in partnership with Douglas Carswell, former UKIP MP;[1] and Voter Consultancy Ltd, whose micro-targeting of Facebook Ads allegedly precipitated unforeseen death threats against Remainer MPs[10] and led to a subsequent investigation by the Information Commissioner's Office.
