We are delighted to share that our Innovation Showcase will take place on the afternoon/evening of Wednesday, 13 November 2024. This year, we’re taking the opportunity to celebrate 5 years of Start Codon and will be changing the format to allow more of our portfolio companies to share their progress and for a select number to also give live demonstrations of their technology. As a result, this year’s Showcase will be an in-person only event with live presentations and no pre-recorded videos. Presenting this year, we have Awen Oncology, Emm, Indegra Therapeutics and Octiocor. And showcasing their technology, we’ll also be joined by Cardiac-Tech Ltd, Proxximos and Verinnogen. Look out for more posts, spotlighting each of our exhibiting companies, between now and the event.

Creating trust in the workplace can create a more inclusive and collaborative working environment, which in turn can help make others feel worthy and that they belong. Our expert panellists from our webinar on Justice, Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (JEDI), Jason Mellad and Paula Rogers-Brown, highlight how changes from above can help others to feel included and realise their full potential. This creates a beneficial working environment for everyone, which can impact a company's success. "Don’t ever let anybody try to make you feel lesser than them, just because you don't look like them or you don’t fit the ‘norm’." – Jason "To unlock our ability to create successful businesses and create more inclusive and collaborative working environments, we need to build trust across all levels. Leaders can really play a part here by being intentional about implementing the principles of JEDI in the workplace. It creates a win-win scenario – for staff and the organisation as a whole." – Paula #Collaboration #Inclusion #JEDI #ThursdayThoughts

Continuing our conversation on Justice, Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (JEDI), our next top tips come from Emma Plowman, Dr Uzma Choudry and Hayden Selvadurai who want to encourage others to be ambitious and know that every change they make counts. "Don’t let others limit your ambition. The reality is if you have a voice and you have skills and expertise, you do have something valuable to add – whether that’s technical leadership or aspiring to sit on a Board of Directors." – Emma “Often people from underrepresented communities work twice as hard and deliver great results, but struggle to have their contribution recognised, due to the unjust or misinformed perceptions of others. Don’t be afraid to speak up for your achievements, use the data and evidence you have, and/or find sponsors who champion and recognise what you bring to the table.” – Uzma "Don’t be afraid to challenge authority and take pride in even the small changes you are able to influence or own." – Hayden #Aspiration #Ambition #Leadership #JEDI
