    alter.state "The Stakeholders" Jewell Sparks & Zivile Einikyte

    "One of the things I have noticed throughout my career, it is very importance to have a voice." - Jewell Sparks "The Nordic Baltic Innovation Sprint is a collaborative effort amongst four women who care about women, tech, finance and inclusion. We needed to organize an event that amplified the innovation goals of female founders." - Zivile Einikyte Jewell Sparks (BiTHOUSE Group / UNITED17 Ventures / Startup42 Media ) and Zivile Einikyte (TechBBQ / alter.state Nordic Baltic Innovation Sprint) discuss investment in female founded ventures and the importance of diversity and inclusion in technology.  Jewell admits that she looks forward to the day when diversity and inclusion in tech identifiers can be dropped once the venture and tech industries have balance amongst their leadership teams and support mechanisms.  Diversity is not just about gender, it's age, ethnicity, skill set, culture and experience.  Zivile's superpower is communication and she is happy when she can provide startups with the right tools to connect with talent, investors and enterprise customers. #SDGs #alterstate #womenintech  #innovation #diversity #inclusion #Startup42Media #communication

    alter.state "The Stakeholders" Robert Gierke (Purenessity)

    Robert Gierke of Purenessity talks to James Digby (Startup42 Media) about the concept of being “radically positive.” They also discuss sustainability as a business model and more. "I am a male and I realize that humanity has two great wings - the male wing has been fully developed and expressed whereas the female wing has not. We are flying in circles until the female wing has grown into the same strength as the male wing. Only then the bird of humanity will soar to new heights.” This quote was inspired by Bird of Humanity narrative from Lynne Twist (The Soul of Money Institute) and is a personal mantra of Robert, one of the mentors for the alter.state Nordic-Baltic Women Innovation Sprint. #womenintech #tippingpoint #Nordic #Baltic #innovation #mentor
