Embracing Equity - International Women's Day 2023

By JBM, James Mitra

Recruitment and Tech are both not industries with the best reputation when it comes to Diversity, Equity and Inclusivity.  That’s why JBM and 40 Minute Mentor are on a mission to change that. With our podcast specifically, we’re always looking to feature unique and inspiring stories, especially giving underrepresented voices a platform to share theirs.  We’re very much still a work in progress and are always looking to improve series on series and year on year.  With that in mind, we have had the great pleasure of welcoming industry trailblazers and leading voices and DE&I over the years.  In today’s bite-sized episode, we’re looking back on some of our favourite moments, featuring DE&I advice from:  ➡️ Claire Valoti, VP for EMEA at Snap Inc  ➡️ Check Warner, Partner at ADA Ventures  ➡️ Sharmadean Reid, Founder of The Stack World  ➡️ Marta Krupinska, former Head of Google for Startups UK and Co-Founder of CUR8  ➡️ Grace Beverley, Founder and CEO of TALA and SHREDDY  ➡️ Baroness Oona King, VP of DE&I at Snap Inc  ➡️ Alice Bentinck, Co-Founder of Entrepreneur First    💙 A big thank you to our Sponsors: Alchemist - an industry leading learning and development company, whose learning journeys and experiences help organisations who want to grow, change or transform by putting the learner first to optimise organisational performance.
