International Women’s Day is a celebration of the world’s industry-busting, history-making, tradition-defying women. In short, it’s a reminder that while there is a long way to go to achieve gender equality, we‘re getting closer every day.
We are delighted to announce that our CEO and Founder Alice Stephenson has been awarded the Women in Innovation Award 2021, sitting amongst 39 other female innovators making history in their field.
Launched in 2016 by Innovate UK, the Women in Innovation award was set up to engage, develop, and support the history-making women of today.
The Women in Innovation award is a project that has outdone itself in scope, standard, and social benefit The campaign provides financial support, mentoring and business growth opportunities for women leading the way on today’s innovations.
A female founder who rejects societal norms, challenges traditions, and faces her industry with creativity: innovation encapsulates Alice, and has made its way into the SLHQ fabric.
At SLHQ our love for tech knows no bounds. We work with incredible companies in the tech industry, and it’s only right for us to demonstrate our legal and technical capabilities to the world. Everything that we do is centred around these important things:
In conjunction with building a content platform for start-ups that provides cost-effective legal support (to be revealed!), we’re building an AI powered solution to provide entrepreneurs with the straight-forward legal advice they need to succeed.
No legalese.
No sight of stuffy corporate types.
Just straightforward legal support: on demand.
Since starting Stephenson Law in 2017, Alice has been on a mission to create a law firm that challenges tradition, revolutionises the legal industry, and paves the way for change.
Winning the Women in Innovation award not only propels her in her goal, but it’s also wonderful recognition of the journey Alice and her team of flockers are on.
