Spotify Inclusion Summit 2018

General News

▤ Summary

The year after, in Stockholm, the meeting was still not big enough for microphones at the venue, and we focused on how to develop and implement a proper Diversity and Inclusion Strategy. Jason Mayden (formerly Senior Global Design Director at Nike, now CEO and co-founder of children’s shoe company Super Heroic) reminded us that we are all “cultural alchemists” and we all play our part. The summit also comprised a series of “lightning talks”, where colleagues got up on stage for seven minutes to share important experiences, insights, or projects. There was Susanne Najafi, entrepreneur and venture capitalist telling us how her background and view on inclusion allows her to find great investments that the rest of the market can’t. Publicist and DJ April Hunt (formerly at MoMA PS1, now at SparkplugPR), sharing her experiences on opening up the door for underrepresented groups and how that leads to better results for everyone.
