Organised by The Future is ND
The Future is ND brings you a well overdue in-person event at the wonderful D&AD space in Cheshire Street E2, with refreshments and a chance to network again with your neurodivergent peers.
At this exciting event, ND leaders at the top of their game will share stories of how they got there and give insights into their strengths and day-to-day challenges.
The evening’s speakers - Iain Preston, Joanne Hippolyte, Helen Needham, and Gellan Watt will bring to life what it takes to be a successful ND leader, what drives them, their approaches, and their values.
The world needs ND leaders. As the Creative and Tech industries start to embrace neurodiversity, even more, it’s vital to have leaders who as well as bringing specialist skills to the table, can also have a depth of understanding and empathy essential to nurture those, like them, who want to succeed.
Whether you're ND (self-diagnosed or otherwise), an ally, a manager, or just curious, come and join our friendly gathering to understand how leading with our neurodivergence and our collective energy can help us all create better workplaces in the future.
The tickets are subsidised for accessiblility and we will be providing drinks (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic)and light catering (Made By Melina)with vegan options. If you are currently unemployed or low waged and would like to attend please get in touch.
Thank you to our kind sponsors Wunderman Thompson for helping make this event happen and to Studio La PLage for generously offering to film the evening to create awareness around Neurodiversity in Creative and Tech.
Come and join us for an evening of IRL talks, drinks, nibbles, and networking. It's been far too long!
