D-Listers are visible to large organisations looking for diverse business leaders to represent at conferences, speak on panels, become mentors and more.
The D-List exists to showcase regional unique business leaders through sharing their expertise, sector specialism, and dedication in their field. This in turn allows them to act as role models, inspiring current and future generations.
We value equality and diversity in entreprenuership.
How many times have you attended a conference and noticed that the panels and keynote speakers were a fairly homogeneous crew that didn’t represent the diversity of the audience? This happens much more frequently than it should these days.
Promoting a broad range of voices that are diverse in gender, ethnicity, experiences, expertise, and approaches strengthens our future. Diverse voices at lecterns provide diverse role models for the next generation of entrepreneurs. Diversity provides richer networking and collaborations, advancing everyone’s careers fairly, along with advancing our fields.
The D-List features a wide range of business experts. It is designed to assist conference organisers in promoting more diversity across panels, keynote speakers, boards, committees and collaborators, and to help journalists identify new subject matter experts.
