  • “Last Women Standing": The Fight to Keep Women in Tech on the Map Amidst Funding Cuts

    The tech sector is facing a critical challenge: women are increasingly leaving the industry. But as Dr. Vanessa Vallely OBE, founder of We Are Tech Women, reveals, the answer isn't just about attracting new talent, but passionately fostering a vibrant, nationwide community for those already here.

    Inspired by Ada Lovelace Day, Women in Tech Week is a grassroots movement that defied expectations, growing from an idea to 70 events in its first year, spanning from Falmouth to Edinburgh. Despite facing significant funding cuts in the wider industry, Vanessa discusses how they've doubled corporate interest this year, spotlighting crucial topics like AI, cyber, and the impacts of the Lovelace Report. This conversation explores the power of community, the fight for visibility, and why putting "Women in Tech on the map" is more vital than ever to ensure a thoughtful and honest tech culture for all leaders, builders, and learners.

  • The AI Governance Void: Why Standards Are Filling the Regulatory Gap

    "In a world accelerating through an 'AI gold rush' where less than 20% of organizations have clear AI governance in place, we face a critical question: who will set the rules for responsible AI development?

    While global governments grapple with wildly different regulatory philosophies (from the US's reluctance to China's robust legislation) a surprising, ready-made solution exists.

    This episode unpacks how international standards bodies like the British Standards Institution (BSI) are stepping into this vacuum, bringing together diverse experts, academics, and civil society to define what ethical and safe AI actually looks like.

    We explore how consensus-based standards, such as the new ISO 42001 management system for AI, are becoming the practical blueprint for organizations to responsibly harness AI, bridging the critical gap where legislation lags. Susan Taylor Martin reveals why these global, flexible standards are not just about compliance, but about building trust and preventing the unseen mistakes of past tech booms."

  • Why Vertical Integration Could Define the Future of EVs – Will Graylin on Smart Wheels, Fleets & System Thinking

    Electrifying transport isn’t as simple as swapping engines for batteries. It’s about vehicles, charging, service, and the economics to make it work.

    In this episode, I sit down with Will Graylin, CEO of IndiGO Technologies, to talk about how his company is taking on this challenge with vertically integrated EV solutions built for ride-hail, delivery fleets, and commercial transport.

    We dive into why IndiGO’s MIT-born “smart wheel” tech changes vehicle design, the importance of owning the charging infrastructure, and why Will believes this transition rivals the shift from horse-drawn carriages to cars over a century ago.
