The Women of the Future Podcast - Kindness & Courage: Men as Allies: Manon Dave
*WOMEN OF THE FUTURE PODCAST – KINDNESS & COURAGE: MEN AS ALLIES* When you're onto a good thing, why stop?! We've decided to continue our brilliant new Women of the Future podcast series as it's proving incredibly popular with you lovely listeners. The idea was conjured up by the wonderful Pinky Lilani herself - founder and chair of the Women of the Future Programme it’s awards and initiatives. Introducing: ‘Kindness & Courage: Men as Allies’. We will be joined on this podcast by prominent male figures from the world of business, entrepreneurship, tech and more, as we delve into the nuanced world of male allyship. Defined as the consistent and intentional efforts by men to support and advocate for gender equity and inclusion. We have someone VERY special for you this week, who offered an incredibly moving and inspirational conversation. But, how to describe Manon Dave’s career? He admits himself it isn’t easy… One thing's for sure, Manon is immensely impressive - sitting confidently, powerfully and magnetically at the intersection of entertainment, technology, storytelling and culture. A Creative Technologist, Product Designer, Musician & Founder Manon Dave is the principal lead A.I. engineer for will.i.am and Idris Elba, and the founder of multiple new business ventures focused on creating better A.I. equity for all. Manon’s adaptive experiences connect with audiences and evolve with feedback, into something quite extraordinary as he continues to push the boundaries of what A.I. can achieve in shaping the future of creativity and innovation. One of Manon’s proudest moments was working alongside Framestore and Che Lingo, to produce original music for the Refugee Olympic Team. Combining live footage and generative A.I. to produce a graphic-novel-style showcase of the athletes which was shown at Cannes Lions and the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics. Manon is committed to developing tools that are not only powerful but also intuitive and accessible. With a track record of innovative projects and a dedication to collaboration, Manon is transforming complex challenges into opportunities, paving the way for smarter, more connected communities.

The Women of the Future Podcast - Kindness & Courage: Men as Allies: Nik Mehta OBE
*WOMEN OF THE FUTURE PODCAST – KINDNESS & COURAGE: MEN AS ALLIES* We’re into week six of our brand-new Women of the Future podcast series – conjured up by the wonderful Pinky Lilani herself - founder and chair of the Women of the Future Programme it’s awards and initiatives. We’ve called it: ‘Kindness & Courage: Men as Allies.’ We will be joined on this podcast by prominent male figures from the world of business, entrepreneurship, tech and more, as we delve into the nuanced world of male allyship. Defined as the consistent and intentional efforts by men to support and advocate for gender equity and inclusion. Nikesh (Nik) Mehta is the British High Commissioner to Singapore, having joined the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office in 2002. His work has taken Nik everywhere from Iraq to Malaysia, South Korea to Uganda - with his posting to Uganda particularly poignant as his mother, an Ugandan-Asian, was expelled from the country by Idi Amin’s forces in the 1970s. Awarded an OBE in 2014 for his contribution to British foreign policy and diversity - Nik has to be one of the most warm and welcoming Ambassadors I’ve ever met. If you’d like to hear more about his familial connection to the Lionesses, as well as efforts in brokering an agreement with the British government and K-pop, then you’ve come to the right podcast… ------------------------------------------------ The Women of the Future podcast is made in conjunction with the Women of the Future Programme a platform built to unlock a culture of kindness and collaboration among leaders, as well as support and celebrate the successes of women.
