Dr Shapour Hariri Shapour Hariri, a Tallow Chandler and an entrepreneur with a background in healthcare, technology and business, was guest speaker. Dr Hariri spoke about changes to the world of work, including the rise and use of AI, and the impact of those changes in the workplace. However, he advised that although change may create uncertainty, it can also create opportunity, and that those who embrace change and the opportunities arising from it, can shape their futures with confidence.

It was pleasure to meet all Award Winners and we wish them all the very best in the academic endeavours.
