Throughout my career, I’ve been committed to solving one crucial question: “How can we help more people thrive?” Technological advancements have rapidly transformed organisational needs and the demand for upskilling has never been greater. We are witnessing the potential of AI to bridge this skills gap but not the widespread adoption to leverage the benefit and mitigate socioeconomic disparities.  After speaking to dozens of organisations from corporates, to high growth companies and educational institutions, we heard a shared uncertainty on how to integrate AI to optimise people performance and organisational efficiency. What defines best practice? What solutions should we implement? How do we measure progress? With collective challenges, it’s necessary to create shared solutions. That’s why I’m excited to announce we will be holding our first ever AI & The Future of Work Summit - on October 10th at The Conduit, London. I’m so grateful that we’ll be joined by incredible leaders and friends including: - President of British Chambers of Commerce, and Chair of We-Transfer - Global Managing Director of Technology Research and Thought Leadership at Accenture - Ex-Chief Digital Officer at T-Mobile, and ex-CTO Office Google and Apple - Director of Policy and Public Engagement at Google DeepMind - CEOs and executives of leading companies (TikTok, Trustpilot, Hackajob, Lepaya) - Academic leaders in AI and Skills (including University of Oxford & Minerva University) Martha Lane Fox Marcus East Helen Krause, CFA H. James Wilson Claire Davenport Fabian Stephany Nicky Gray Rich Waterworth Ben Nelson Egle Vinauskaite Mark Chaffey René Janssen Dorothy Chou James Hurley Husayn Kassai Quench.ai For those who share my passion for nurturing talent, I’d love for you to join us.

From Classroom to Boardroom: The Rise of Young Innovators 🚀  In today's rapidly evolving world, young minds are not just adapting—they're leading the charge. Take, for instance, the inspiring journey of Pranjali Awasthi, a 16-year-old prodigy who founded Delv AI, a startup revolutionizing data extraction for researchers. Her venture, valued at an impressive ₹99.8 crore, underscores the boundless potential of youthful innovation.  But Pranjali is not alone. Globally, young innovators are making significant strides:  🔹 Nischal Nadhamuni, co-founder of Klarity, is leveraging AI to automate document and data review for businesses, attracting major clients like OpenAI and Zoom.  🔹 Sneha Revanur, at just 19, founded Encode Justice, a youth-led organization advocating for safe and equitable AI, influencing global leaders to commit to AI safety measures.  These stories highlight a pivotal truth: age is no barrier to innovation. The digital age has democratized information, enabling young talents to transform ideas into impactful realities.  💡 To all the aspiring innovators out there:   Dream big, start small, and let your passion guide you. The world is ready for your ideas. Are you ready to share them?  #Innovation #YouthLeadership #AIStartups #Inspiration

Break Through Tech is leading the charge for diversity in tech—and 2024 was a milestone year. With nearly 1,000 fellows in the nation’s largest AI Program of its kind, our impact is clear: 🎯 80% of our fellows are landing tech positions. 🎯 90% are women or gender nonconforming. 🎯 59% are Black, Latinx, Native, low-income, or first-generation college-goers. Thanks to the transformative support from Pivotal, Melinda French Gates' organization, we’re doubling our efforts to reshape the future of tech leadership. As #AI transforms industries, diversity in tech isn’t just an aspiration—it’s an imperative. With women still making up less than 25% of the AI workforce, Break Through Tech is paving the way, one fellow at a time.

💡 Why I Started the Future Forward Accelerator - it's a question many of you have asked me. So here is why: I'm a numbers girl, so let's break it down: 📊 $20 trillion—AI's projected economy 💼 92% of companies investing in AI 🤖 66% of employers won't hire without AI skills 🚨 But here's the reality check: Only 1 in 3 women are using AI, compared to over half of men. ### The Uncomfortable Truth 🔍 Industries where women dominate—healthcare, education, administration, first-line jobs—are first in line for AI disruption. Staying relevant isn't just an option; it's survival. ### My Origin Story 💥 Picture this: 5 years ago, a passionate STEM woman frustrated by untapped potential of women. One conversation with a friend changed everything: "Stop complaining. Start solving." That is how Uplevyl was born. Fast forward to today, I can see the speed at which AI is advancing. It’s clear: AI is going to need humans with AI and digital acumen. Ensuring women are part of this equation is no longer just important—it’s imperative. And that’s how the Uplevyl's Future Forward Accelerator was born. ### Future Forward: More Than a Program 🚀 I don't want us to gain AI and digital skills. I want us to: - Break tech barriers - Build confidence - Seize opportunities - Transform careers ### The Vision 🌈 Ensure women don't just adapt to the AI era— we can also LEAD it. This isn't about keeping up. It's about STAYING RELEVANT and standing out. 🌟 Ready to lead in the AI economy? 👉 I invite you, your colleagues and friends to join us: https://lnkd.in/eUmFBY7d As always, please share with me your thoughts/questions on the Accelerator or anything else on your mind. #AI #FutureForward #Leadership #Reskilling #StayRelevant
