Justina Omotayo, Diversity and Inclusion Manager at Slaughter and May said, “I am delighted to be included on HERoes first Ethnically Diverse Women Role Models 2022. The biggest honour is being included alongside these incredibly inspirational women, who are all leaders in their industries and fields.

“I am really proud of the work that Slaughter and May is doing to further diversity and inclusion of all kinds – there is still much more that we need to do, but I’m determined to drive that change and help the firm and the legal sector take more steps in the right direction.”

Founder & CEO of INvolve, Suki Sandhu OBE, says, “I am excited to unveil the brilliant HERoes Ethnically Diverse Women Role Models supported by HSBC. This list showcases twenty exceptional ethnically diverse women role models in business, representing multiple regions across the world who are going above and beyond to drive women’s inclusion.
