Watch the recording:

Chaired by Neelam Mughal (KTM Advanced Materials) and featuring five exciting and diverse panellists, you will hear from inspiring women innovators and their entrepreneurial journeys in innovation. We believe in their powerful ideas and in our role to raise their profile as thought leaders in these legacy industries.

The foundation industries produce materials that make up everything around us: metals, glass, paper, cements, ceramics and chemicals.

The Transforming Foundation Industries Challenge (TFI) seeks to leverage cross-sector collaboration to create step change in these industries through scale up of innovative technologies. The Challenge also looks to address the lack of diversity in these sectors, particularly the underrepresentation of women at senior leadership levels, and most notably in technical and operational roles.

Why should you watch the recording

  • Hear questions from fellow innovators
  • Get tips and advice
  • Challenge your assumptions
  • Celebrate the successes of TFI community members
