Bel Pesce is a renowned author, mathematician, engineer and computer science genius.
At 18 she received a prestigious scholarship to MIT and spent time working with Microsoft, Google and Deutsche Bank.
She has worked with many pioneering tech firms in Silicon Valley and amassed a huge social media following.
She currently travels around the world to share her knowledge and experience of being a tech start up and female entrepreneur.
It was a wonderful informal workshop where we learnt about her life and successful working techniques.
As a passionate fairtrade campaigner and advocate I felt compelled to join the Fairtrade Fortnight 2024 webinar.
2024 will be 30 years of Fair trade in the United Kingdom.
This webinar was organised by the Fairtrade Foundation UK team.
I have attached photographs of the webinar below for those interested.
