Joanna Accordi is an author, finance and operations executive, and entrepreneur with a career spanning more than two decades.

She began investing on the stock market at 14 and, at 18, co-founded WorldNet, a software company and internet provider. In 2005 she relocated to Ireland, completing a Master's in Finance and Project Management, and in 2007 founded Comlife, an investment house that grew into a multi-asset management company with offices in five countries. In 2019, after twelve years, she closed Comlife and its funds to focus on epigenetics, neurofinance, and Artificial Intelligence.

Today she serves as a founding Board member of the International Regulatory Body for Artificial Intelligence (IRBAI, in formation), leading initiatives at the intersection of ethics, law, and AI governance, alongside her private projects and contributions to global policy and diplomatic efforts.

Accordi is the author of six books. Her nonfiction provides rigorous, evidence-based analysis of psychopathy, narcissism, coercive control, and institutional abuse, mapping their underlying psychological mechanisms and real-world consequences. Her most recent work, The Perceptory Force: A Structural Theory of Consciousness and Reality, advances a formal theoretical framework integrating philosophy of mind, neuroscience, quantum theory, and cosmology, arguing that perception is constitutive of physical reality rather than a by-product of it, and deriving specific, falsifiable predictions in particle physics for empirical testing.

A former member of the CFA Society UK and the National Futures Association (U.S.), she has worked alongside financiers, technologists, and policymakers, and brings a global perspective informed by travel to more than 80 countries across five continents.
