Shaping the Future: Levelling the AI Playing Field. Building a women-led AI platform with no-code.

In this session, Chelsea Slater, founder of InnovateHer, and Product Manager Chimdinma share the real story behind building a women-led AI e-learning platform — using no-code tools, a small but mighty team, and an unshakeable belief that you don't need to be a developer to build something that changes lives. They'll walk through how InnovateHer's team of women used no-code to go from idea to launch, the mindset shifts that made it possible, and why democratising who gets to build in the AI era matters more than ever. This talk is equal parts practical and personal — expect honest lessons, not a highlight reel.

Attendees will leave with:

A clearer picture of which no-code tools can actually move the needle for founders and teams

The confidence to start building before they feel "ready"

A framework for bringing non-technical women into the building process

Inspiration from a real platform built to reach thousands of young women worldwide — created by the very women who understand what's been missing

Why this talk?

We are at a defining moment in the history of technology. AI is reshaping every industry, every job, and every opportunity — and the decisions being made right now about how it's built, who it serves, and what it prioritises will shape the world for decades to come. Women represent less than a third of the global tech workforce, and in AI specifically, that gap is even wider. If we don't act now, we risk building the future on a foundation that leaves half the population behind.

But this isn't just about the women in the room today. It's about the girls who are watching. The 7-year-olds, the teenagers, the young women at the start of their careers who are trying to figure out whether there's a place for them in this world — and finding very few mirrors to look into. The next generation will inherit the AI era we build. That's exactly why this talk matters, and why InnovateHer exists.
