Aerospace Xelerated - Diversity Dialogues: Navigating Startup Inclusion
Join us for a transformative event as we delve into the pivotal role of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) in the aerospace sector!
At Aerospace Xelerated, these principles are ingrained in our foundation. In our commitment to advancing the conversation, our portfolio is currently made up of 25% women-led startups, with our recent cohort comprising an impressive 50% women-led ventures. However, our journey continues beyond these numbers.
This event serves as a platform to explore vital questions: How can we create an environment where women thrive in STEM? What steps can be taken to ensure a culture of sustained inclusivity? Let's collectively address these crucial aspects and propel the aerospace industry toward a future of true equity 🚀
So, who's joining?
We'll be joined by Leonie Sanderson, Joint CEO of People Tech Revolution and founder of The Ageing Revolution; Belinda Perriman, Co-Founder and CCO of Convert Well, who's on a mission to green the oil and gas industry from within, and Anthony Giannoumis, Motivational Speaker on Inclusive Leadership - stay tuned for his upcoming book!
The event will be moderated by our very own Mariam Ketait, Global Accelerators and Innovation Lead at Boeing.
