In this special International Women's Day episode, the IAB’s Director of Transformation, Sophia Haynes, is joined by Nikki Sehgal, General Manager of Media for All (MEFA), to explore the critical issues surrounding gender equity in the media and advertising industries. Recorded just before International Women's Day last Saturday, they discuss the initiatives making a real difference and the vital steps needed to continue breaking down barriers to equality.
With the theme of this year’s IWD being #AccelerateAction, Nikki shares her vision for driving change in 2025, and the crucial role allies can play in advancing gender equity. Sophia and Nikki also dive into the growing gender tech gap, unpacking why women are less likely to adopt technologies like generative AI, and what this could mean for both the gender pay gap and career opportunities in the future.
Nikki also discusses her involvement in the All In Action Plan, set to launch today (12 March), and how it will tackle the important issues of representation and the experience of Asian talent within the industry. Take part here: https://advertisingallin.co.uk/all-in-census/
