The Cyber Escape Room Co.
Amy Stokes-Waters
Founder and CEO - The Cyber Escape Room Co.
Amy started The Cyber Escape Room Co. with a simple belief: cyber training doesn’t need to be boring.
With a background in sales and marketing in cyber companies (and a frankly hedonistic love for living life to the fullest), she realised she could use those skills to teach people about cyber in a way that’s actually fun… the kind of fun that sticks, sparks conversation, and gets people shouting clues across a room.
Amy is unapologetically outgoing, allergic to mediocrity, and deeply committed to shaking up an industry that desperately needs it. She challenges the status quo on purpose, and let’s be honest, because she physically can’t help herself.
After years in corporate roles, she discovered the ultimate truth… she couldn’t hack working for someone else. So she built her own business.
Today, she leads a global brand spanning the UK, US, and Australia, designing immersive, high-energy cyber experiences that replace yawns with “holy shit, that was awesome!”
When she’s not building escape rooms, you’ll find her speaking at conferences, pushing creative boundaries, and living life with the same enthusiasm she brings to every game she designs.
