Synopsis

We’re excited to invite you to a fabulous event featuring two very successful female founders of companies within the Yorkshire Region: Anna Sutton and Melissa Hendry.

Anna is co-founder @ The Data Refinery, a SaaS, integrated data ecosystem which takes all the complexity, pain and cost out of a data warehouse and analytics mart implementation. Anna also co-founded the DataShed and has recently exited from here.

Melissa is the co-founder of ddroidd where on a daily basis she shows her passion to innovate, make a difference, and shape the future of technology. The company has a strong focus on aligning people with challenges to deliver great results, and outcomes.

This will be an interactive panel event and cover a variety of topics about Anna and Melissa’s individual journeys, the challenges they’ve faced along the way, diversity and inclusion, the importance of support networks and their future ambitions.

This event will provide insights and advice for aspiring business owners and leaders or anyone interested in diversity and inclusion.
