Thoughtworks has not been involved with Roy in a business capacity since he sold the company.”that Singham and his wife, left-wing Code Pink co-founder Jodie Evans, had “donated over $20.4 million to the People’s Forum from 2017 to 2022 through a series of shell organizations and donor advisory groups — accounting for nearly all of the group’s funding.” Evansitself at the forefront of the anti-Israeli protest movement. Following the October 7 Hamas terror attack, the People’s Forum wasted no time drumming up opposition to Israeli military action, organizing a rally in Times Square on October 8, mere hours after Hamas militants murdered and kidnapped thousands of Israelis, as well asat Columbia University the following summer. Elias Rodriguez, the man accused of murdering two Israeli embassy employees outside the Capital Jewish Museum in May, took part in protests around 2017 and 2018 organized by left-wing groups connected to the People’s Forum through funding from Singham, according tosince 2017 has come from groups closely tied to Singham.

Based on a review by BNF, and corroborated by both Grok and Gemini, Singham is not listed in any of Thoughtworks’ SEC filings during the years the company was publicly traded. Singham’s alleged involvement in Thoughtworks Beijing after 2017 would, if true, give him a foothold in a business that has proven lucrative for Thoughtworks.

The Beijing branch —where Singham is named as a corporate officer —to the Chinese Communist Party, runs deep. From 2002 to 2008, Singham personally worked as a consultant for Huawei; and Huawei remained. When asked by BNF whether Thoughtworks or any of its subsidiaries such as Thoughtworks Beijing had done any work with Huawei since August of 2020, a Thoughtworks spokesperson responded, “we do not disclose or comment on our client relationships.” Interestingly, Thoughtworks appears to have no U.S. patents, but Thoughtworks Beijing holds a dozen in China.
