  • Conversations about Organ Donation Awareness FT. Shivam Nagpal.
    According to the World Health Organization, a mere 0.01 percent of individuals in India contribute their organs posthumously. In this podcast, we're joined by Shivam Nagpal, whose NGO 'Organ For Life' strives to propagate awareness in India and beyond. Featured in esteemed publications such as The Guardian, Vice, Times of India, and NDTV, Shivam is dedicated to creating a global impact, fostering a better society for organ patients in the South-Asian region. An aspiring lawyer, he has passionately championed organ and blood donation for the past 2.5 years. Inspired by the United Kingdom's opt-out system, Shivam envisions a world where individuals are presumed organ donors unless they explicitly state otherwise. His profound motivation stems from the noble goal of saving lives.
    Remember, if you haven't recorded an organ donation decision and fall outside excluded groups, it will be assumed that you consent to donating your organs upon passing.

  • EP.6 - Society® Is this app the future of Student Engagement? FT.Matthew Billington
    Matthew Billington recalled when he entered the 4th year as a dental student at King's College London, He soon discovered that being elected President of the KCL Dental Society came with its fair share of problems. After engaging with Presidents from other dental schools ,He soon discovered that nearly every new President of a university society is in the same boat, re-creating the wheel, each and every year."
    The Society® app made its debut at King's College London with the President of KCL Dental Society deciding to revolutionize the way that its society was run.
    He originally came up with the idea of an app to have a profound and positive impact on committees and society members. Helping committees to save time through automating event management, certificates, ticketing/e- tickets for events, whilst having the committee displayed and available for all members to directly contact through the chat. A great way to interconnect all the societies in a university.
    Matthew explained, “As years go by, we are finding Facebook is becoming increasingly outdated, seeing a progressive decline in engagement with university students. Society® is a fresh new app available for all of us to use, evolving new levels of engagement.”
    With popular event booking platforms such as Eventbrite and Fatsoma, having high transaction fees, Matthew also wanted to create a platform with the lowest possible ticket transaction fees for students, whilst remaining free for free events.
    Matthew continues, “We now have a university society platform which allows everyone to engage in multiple societies and events are all in one place. No more lost links on WhatsApp chat groups!”
    That's why he decided to create a free, all-in-one app, to increase engagement and productivity for all Presidents and Committees of student societies. The idea: to save time for committees while connecting students on a whole new level. His vision is to automate, digitize and revolutionize university societies and college clubs, groups is definitely the Future to more students engagement & a greater student experience.

  • EP.3 - Dr.Hollins decodes the challenges for Creative Arts Students

    Paul Hollins is a Professor of Cultural Research Development. Supporting collaborative research across the School of Arts is one of his responsibilities. An experienced academic, Paul has published widely in the Arts, Education, Business, and Technology fields. Before the COVID-19 pandemic struck, creative organisations involved in advertising, fashion, film and graphic design were thriving - discover how you could enter as the industry tries to recover. According to the Department of Digital, Culture, Media & Sport, the UK's creative industries contributed £115.9 billion to the economy in 2019. The sector now makes up just under 6% of the economy, an increase of 43.6% since 2010. Aside from his involvement in the EU Horizon 2020 project RAGE (Realizing an Applied Gaming Ecosystem Europe), Professor Hollins will chair the Whitman 200 conference as well as support collaborative research projects within the School of Arts. 1. Who are the main employers of graduate graduates? 2. What is it like to work in this field? 3. What are the key issues facing the creative industries? 4. What advice would you give to students who want to pursue creative arts?  Do you think there are enough jobs? It’s the only industry that boomed during the lockdown Paul has a strong and diverse background from business and academia to draw on when challenging the current state of educational technology. I would find it interesting to discuss what the future of creative art students should look like.
