Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Oxford+ in Brief with Ceri Morgan, Partner at Dalloway Partners
Q: What would success look like if we got this right?
Success would mean the ecosystem is fully integrated, with strong ties between investors, mentors, and companies, so spin-outs grow rapidly, reach patients, and create meaningful local wealth, supported by a robust investor database and active sponsorship from parent companies.
Oxford+ in Brief with Riham Satti, co-founder and CEO of MeVitae
Q: What is Oxford great at and what is it not so great at?
Oxford excels at networking and has many specialized pockets (technology, biotech, student community) but could improve at connecting these pockets and integrating data across HR systems to unlock more innovation and growth.
Oxford+ in Brief with Riham Satti, co-founder and CEO of MeVitae
Q: What would success look like if we got this right?
Success means environments where everyone can be themselves, feel a strong sense of belonging, and see retention and happiness as a result of empowered, efficient teams that save time for the right people in the organization.
Unconscious Bias, Responsible AI, and the Future of Workforce Decisions
Q: What simple steps would you give smaller firms to address unconscious biases in hiring?
Use anonymized screening to remove name/photo cues, build diverse interview panels, collect and discuss candidate feedback transparently, and give decision-makers more time to shift from gut reactions to rational analysis.
Unconscious Bias, Responsible AI, and the Future of Workforce Decisions
Q: What size are you at now and how do you see MeVitae evolving in the next couple of years?
MeVitae is around 20 people and has been doubling year over year. The aim is sustained organic growth, expand enterprise deployments, deepen the responsible AI framework, and continue integrating data across HR systems to scale impact while preserving culture.
