Inclusion Network

This forum would be of interest to members with an interest in incorporating diversity, equity and inclusion within their marketing, marketing comms and advertising.

Welcome: Kerry Chilvers, Aviva and Tom Chard, Tesco - Co-Chairs of the Inclusion Network

Melda Simon from the Unstereotype Alliance who will be taking us through the Inclusion = Income report that was launched last year with the Said Business School.

Kian Bakhtiari, Founder of THE PEOPLE, Advisor to UN Climate Change, TEDx Speaker and one of the Financial Times’ Top 50 Future Leaders, will lead us through a conversation on how to ensure that when talking about Gen-Z that advertisers/brands are giving space to their voice.

In addition, we have Demi Abiola and Aidan Jean-Marie from Konfluence joining us to have a brief conversation on supplier diversity – how to not just make it a compliance tick-box, but a genuine driver of innovation, relevance, and commercial growth because today’s consumers expect brands to reflect the world they live in. And diverse supplier partnerships are proven to unlock new ideas, new audiences, and stronger consumer trust.
