Speakers
For a world that sees all people; equally. One built on an inclusive and accessible future.
Founder and CEO of KINSPACE, Sara's mission is to help pioneering leaders make their workplaces, products and services accessible to all.
Sara’s experience lies in management consulting, executive coaching and development, intersectional diversity, equity and inclusion, and emerging technologies across global markets.
As a tech enthusiast and people-oriented leader, I'm a big believer in workplace technology (VR) integration as a force for good. One that creates cultures driven by leaders who better understand how team dynamics in the working environment directly impact the pace of innovation and results.
At KINSPACE we're on a mission to help pioneering leaders make their products and services more accessible to [invisible] new markets. Applying our core value of using lived experienced to build, facilitate and advocate for change is the key to what we do and how we deliver meaningful customer outcomes.
