The Fourth Industrial Revolution is the fourth major industrial era since the initial Industrial Revolution of the 18th century. It is characterised by a range of new technologies that are fusing the physical, digital and biological worlds, impacting all disciplines, economies and industries. Jennifer hopes this revolution will come with a social commitment and movement that will inspire all of us to think again about humanities dignity, liberty and equality. Throughout her talk, she encourages us all to embrace the role we play in enabling a future that is inclusive and to use our collective intelligence to shape the impact of this Industrial Revolution. Jennifer is the Global Director of UN Relations for Microsoft
Philanthropies. Her personal mission and career are focused
on creating a social impact. Whilst, gender diversity, and girls
and women inclusion opportunities, are also an important drive
of her work. As Director of UN Relations, she is responsible of
developing and managing strategic UN partnerships aligned to
Microsoft’s commitment to the Sustainable Development
Goals (SDG’s). She executes Philanthropies’ programs around
Digital Skills, Digital Transformation, Humanitarian Action and
advancing systematic sustainable policy change, creating
partnership strategies across key UN agencies to drive thought
leadership, digital inclusion, providing a social good impact, as
well as driving our social good marketing efforts around SDG’s.
She is ensuring we are fulfilling the Microsoft Philanthropies
mission to advance a future that is for everyone. Jennifer holds
a Postgraduate in Public Policies and Poverty Reduction, from
St. Andrew’s University and World Bank, and a BA in Social
Studies and Education. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at
