Starting the year off with a CNBC feature looking at our work with Colorintech and BTF® in the light of a DEI pullback. A huge shout out to Felicity Crossland for helping us land it with great work from Freddie Roberts Jerridah Akena Ben Novick and the wider Milltown Partners team. Sawdah B. and April Roach thanks for covering it all! https://lnkd.in/etVbDKgM For those who want the TLDR I said "If we think about the whole concept of growing Britain and making ourselves a more productive country, then we can’t do that by increasing disparities of productivity across particular social groups, especially when these social groups ... might be minorities, but they’re not insignificant." And Dion McKenzie more diverse workforce leads to “better products, better teams and ultimately more revenue,” McKenzie said, adding that more inclusive employers enable firms to secure the “best of the talent.”

Our founders Ashleigh Ainsley FRSA and Dion McKenzie speak to CNBC on the lack of data, funding and representation in the UK, what the DEI pullback means, and the impact our programming and BTF® is having. Also featured in the article Sarah Wernér (CEO, Husmus), Karl Lokko (Managing Partner, Black Seed), Ayesha Ofori (CEO, Propelle). Read: https://lnkd.in/gTSxQq65
