Well, what a fantastic week. Thank you @TEDTalks for hosting such a brilliant #TEDWomen2023. I must say there was more than a little trepidation - but there really should not have been. There were so many outstanding talks. On day 1 @Dasha_Navalnaya spoke passionately about the plight of her father #AlexeyNavalny who has now been in a Russian prison for 1,000 days. #AvaDuVerney spoke about her new movie, Origin, and how she is working to make sure that every 16-year-old in the US can see the film for free. On day 2 @Dianagfoster spoke so movingly about abortion and women's right to choose backed by quantitative research. @esh2440 introduced me to 'regeneration' (businesses that go beyond #greenwashing in order to make a tangible difference) and yes I did buy a pair of @vejaproject shoes! @JAY4HOPE told us his story that started in a barbershop and how he is inspiring and empowering black entrepreneurs. Reed Williams ended the day so eloquently describing her journey as a transgender child. On the final day, @SashaMTL raised so many important issues around #AI and highlighted the carbon footprint of "algorithms that tell us knock knock jokes". @ruha9 spoke so well about the role of technology in democracy. @MASieghart pulled no punches in her discussion about the "The Authority Gap". All of the talks were brilliant and are in the process of being published by #TED here: ted.com/talks. I'm sure there will be news about #TEDxSheffield2024 @TEDxSheffield very soon 😎
