A ControlAI special-projects lead and director of its UK operating company, with earlier operations work at Conjecture.
Background
UK filings record her voting and director appointment rights at Secure Future Research. Her professional site described Talos Network membership and Conjecture work. Those affiliations do not establish that a Talos donor earmarked support for her work.

Argues for unique persistent identifiers in European electronic IDs on reliability/privacy grounds. Does not establish universal online identity or involvement in age-verification campaigns.

Each director/PSC has >25% and <=50% voting rights and director appointment/removal rights. No share capital; not a precise equity stake or sole control.
Andrea Miotti and Eva Christa Annelore Behrens are the two active UK directors, appointed 22 August 2023. Each is also a person with significant control: more than 25% but no more than 50% voting rights, and right to appoint/remove directors. Nicolas Michel Pierre Moës was a director and PSC from incorporation until 7 November 2023. Do not turn Miotti's founder title into sole legal control. ControlAI's current about page identifies Andrea Miotti as founder/CEO, Connor Leahy as US Executive Director, Eva Behrens as Special Projects Lead, Max Winga as Creator Outreach & Systems Lead, and Des Browne and Gabriel Alfour as advisors. It describes Leahy and Alfour as Conjecture cofounders and Alfour as having helped Andrea found ControlAI. This is personnel/organizational overlap, not proof of money transfers from Conjecture.
New corroboration for previous Behrens findings: https://www.talosnetwork.org/perspectives/alumni-newsletter-october-2025 . Opened/read, dated October14,2025, author David Conrad. Latest Publications explicitly identifies Behrens as Summer2022 alumna and reports Conjecture/ControlAI coauthorship. This upgrades the earlier indexed-only Talos cohort observation to a read primary publisher source; no fellowship payment or donor earmark follows from it.
The UK entity is Secure Future Research Ltd, company 15088415, trading as ControlAI. Miotti and Eva Christa Annelore Behrens have each been directors since incorporation on 22 August 2023; each has more than 25% but no more than 50% of voting rights plus a right to appoint/remove directors. Nicolas Michel Pierre Moes was a director and PSC until 7 November 2023. These records support shared legal control. They do not disclose which individual makes each operational decision. [L01-L03]
Behrens has material formal authority at Secure Future Research Ltd (company 15088415, the UK ControlAI entity identified in the parent investigation), in addition to the public-facing Special Projects Lead title. Companies House lists her as an active director appointed 22 August 2023 and an active person with significant control: more than 25% and no more than 50% of voting rights, plus rights to appoint/remove directors. Andrea Miotti is the other active director/PSC. Nicolas Moes resigned/ceased control on 7 November 2023. These are registered declarations, not proof of each person's day-to-day decisions. Do not call the voting percentage an equity share in a company limited by guarantee.
