That’s a wrap for Women's Forum Singapore 2024 after 2 days of engaging discussion and networking around the theme of “Tech as a vector of inclusion”. Key insights an take always: You can’t be what you can’t see ————————————————- On stage had truly inspiring tech leaders in Education, Government Ministry, Health, and FinTech shared their stories and career progression. It costs us nothing to share our light to spark and inspire others, great to see this in action. Embrace tech and change —————————————— Tech is a fantastic enabler of change and inclusion, individuals need to embrace life long learning, organisations need to look at current skills not just paper qualifications, and governments need to work on removing the bias / barriers in early education. Opportunity and progression ———————————————- With so many opportunities and career paths opening in STEM for women, it can now seem overwhelming. Choosing a path based on your passion and opportunities available, the ability to learn and think critically are fundamental. More so than the specific grade, topic, course or university. Tech is a tool ———————— Combating the Digitial Divide is paying dividends in building inclusion and supporting vulnerable groups economic development. From devices and internet for all kids in COVID lockdowns, using AI to support Asian women public health studies, mentoring and supporting inclusion at all levels. Tech can really be a vector for inclusion. “AI is not going to replace your job, but someone using AI technology might” so you should make sure you’re upskilling and building your own capability.

MEA, in collaboration with the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment, Te Whare Wānanga o Awanuiārangi, and NZTech, proudly presented the highly anticipated 'Mapping the Māori Tech Sector 2023 Report' on Friday, 7 July 2023. This groundbreaking report, accompanied by a concise summary titled 'Mapping the Māori Tech Sector 2023 Interviews,' provides a captivating exploration of the vibrant world of Māori Technology in 2023. Through an immersive 12-month research endeavour, this comprehensive report delves deep into the intricate ways Māori practitioners, workers, and business owners integrate Mātauranga Māori (Māori knowledge) into their endeavors. It unravels the profound impact this integration has on their learning experiences and professional journeys within Aotearoa New Zealand. The insights garnered from over 30 esteemed Māori tech practitioners form the foundation of this compelling research. The report launch began with a wā maumahara, a dedication to Māori technology advocate Richard Orzecki, who passed away in 2015. The launch last year brought together a diverse audience of over 40 participants. Notable guests included Dr. Karaitiana Taiuru - Report Editor, Researchers John Clayton and Hinerangi Eruera Murphy, Fintech entrepreneur Mel Gollan, Tōnui Collab founder Shanon O'Connor, and Computer Scientist Kevin Shedlock, who offered their insightful reflections on the report's findings. The event featured engaging panel discussions, including a contingent from Te Tairāwhiti, including Tena Baker Clark from Tolaga Bay Innovation and Whare Kupenga-Keefe from Aatea Solutions. Both women urged the importance of keeping Māori communities informed and connected, especially elders. Kirialana Whakangi from Huiterangiora put forward a powerful challenge to the room to consider how we can better support kura māori and their desire to grow their capacity and the potential of developing kura solely focused on Pūtaiao and Hangarau (Science and Technology). In the afternoon, the spotlight shifted to InternetNZ, launching the 'Internet that Benefits Report,' which captured whānau and community voices on their hopes and aspirations for the Internet. Anjum Rahman, an InternetNZ Council member, also highlighted the dangers of the internet, with the increasing threat of extremist behavior, and emphasized the importance of education and awareness building. Overall, this momentous event served as a platform for celebrating and showcasing the remarkable advancements and innovative spirit within the Māori tech sector, fueling inspiration and fostering future growth in this exciting field. 🔗 To learn more and download the report: https://lnkd.in/gfmXBymk

I was privileged to be a panelist at the Motsepe Foundation Youth tech Expo. I got to share the stage with an amazing panel that included Luthando Madhlopa Madhlopa, Mixo Ngoveni and Mark Harris What does future readiness for youth look like, in the context of the world being consumed by tech? The Youth labour markets have seen enormous changes in the last decade. While young people are typically more digitally capable than older generations, the current employment prospects for young women and men are extremely challenging. The ‘tech + innovation + talent’ equation is evolving fast, and the definition of ‘future-ready’ already looks different than it did a few years ago. Harnessing ideas of the younger generation, and innovation driven planning and implementation systems are important to let youth thrive. Business leaders must embrace intergenerational leadership. As multiple generations coexist in the workforce, organizations must be able to harness the benefits of this diversity and the energy of youth inclusively and give them enough space to showcase their innate talents to enhance productivity and competitiveness. Young startups and innovators have developed breakthrough ideas and platforms that have created globally successful business models and significantly improved operating efficiencies around the world. There are rising numbers of young entrepreneurs taking the path less traveled and setting out to change the world while making an impact. In a hyperconnected digital world, youth are the passionate advocates of change and global shapers. Youth have to play a game changing role in advancing the goal of sustainable and inclusive development by developing innovation led scalable solutions for people, planet and profit. Youth must take the lead in doing cutting edge research in the tech space which fosters innovation and develops products and solutions for the larger benefit of humanity.

Why Ideation is Critical for Kenya's Innovation Strong ideas are the seeds of future progress. This is true for advancements in technology, social good initiatives, and even artistic movements. By fostering a culture of ideation, Kenya can cultivate solutions for its challenges and contribute to global progress. Innovation Goes Beyond STEM:- Traditionally, innovation has been associated with Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields. However, this is a narrow view. Social sciences, arts, and even individuals without formal education can bring fresh perspectives and creative solutions to the table. Encouraging inclusivity in innovation broadens the pool of ideas and increases the chances of finding effective solutions. Let's break down the myth that innovation requires a specific educational background. How to Unleash Kenya's Innovative Potential There are several ways to break down barriers and support ideation in Kenya: Celebrate Non-STEM Innovation: Highlight success stories of innovators outside STEM fields. This showcases the value of diverse perspectives and inspires others to pursue their ideas. Support Incubation Hubs: Invest in spaces where innovators can develop their ideas. These hubs can provide mentorship, resources, and connections to help refine concepts and turn them into reality. Encourage Idea-Sharing Platforms: Create avenues for Kenyans to share their ideas and get feedback. This could be online forums, hackathons, or community innovation workshops. By dismantling the myth that innovation requires a specific educational background and focusing on nurturing ideas, Kenya can unleash its full innovative potential.
