Elina Meliou FRSA is a Lecturer in Organisational Management based at Newcastle University London. Last year she asked us whether there might be any female Fellows in the network who would be willing to help with her current research focusing on the career trajectories of female social entrepreneurs. 

Her call out received a flood of responses from Fellows, and we're delighted to see that two RSA Fellows are panel members at this event:

Krissie Nicolson FRSA - Krissie Nicolson is the organiser of East End Trades Guild, a community of small independent businesses. 

Jane Hatton FRSA - In 2011 Jane founded Evenbreak, an award-winning social enterprise helping employers such as EY, Network Rail, John Lewis, BBC and others to become more attractive to talented disabled candidates.
