  • Bias - conscious or not - shapes who we hire, who we promote, and who gets left out. But what if we flipped the script? This summit is about creating a new talent revolution: where Gen Z’s demand for change meets millennials’ creativity and Gen X’s leadership experience. Together, we’ll explore how mutual mentoring and inclusive culture can help industries and businesses unlock the next wave of innovation, growth, and belonging.

Beyond Bias: Building A Talent Revolution

This candid panel talk brings together inspiring, trailblazing women to explore how they’re rewriting stories - both on screen and behind the scenes. A deep dive into navigating industry norms, breaking stereotypes, and building the next generation of storytellers.

Immerse yourself in the soulful sounds of Nabiha, the award-winning Danish singer-songwriter celebrated for her captivating stage presence and internationally acclaimed hits.

Spoken word written and performed by mentee Sorraya Moridany, followed by a conversation with mentor, Ioana Jongsma

Bias shapes opportunity.
This summit reimagines it — where Gen Z’s boldness, millennials’ creativity, and Gen X’s experience unite to build a new era of talent. gTogether, we’ll create cultures of inclusion, innovation, and shared growth.

A brave introduction to an uncomfortable reality: when fear co-exists with systemic and cultural change, how do you build your sense of belonging - and safety?

A space designed to keep the energy flowing. Here, mentors, speakers, and guests meet eye-to-eye, share experiences, exchange ideas, and build the kind of connections that last beyond the Summit.

It’s more than your usual networking session; it’s a room filled with curiosity, courage, and conversation.

Together with the powerful young voices of The Soulfuls mentees, this session invites summit attendees to take  seat at the table and join an open, soulful conversation.

The gallery will host creative works of selective Dreamers & Doers 2025 mentees, plus informal conversations around their journey.

Join culture-shaping panellists as they explore how art can challenge systems, spark change, and create space for dreaming. Discover where creativity, activism, and identity meet — and how artists are redefining the stories that shape our world.

If fashion mirrors culture, it’s time the reflection included everyone.
Join a powerful discussion on representation, access, and inclusion — exploring how fashion can honour every body, culture, and identity, and why true diversity transforms the entire industry.

Join mentee Sandra Sebit for an intimate session blending visuals and conversation - exploring creativity, identity, and the power of storytelling through her unique lens.

The afterparty features live sets by Dreamers & Doers 2025 mentees — Melissa Pour, Diana Djaromi, and Savan — blending soulful R&B, atmospheric indie pop, and vibrant house. A celebration of sound, connection, and creative growth.
