Anjali Joshi
What does your role at BIA involve?
My role involves the planning and execution of the BIA Webinars, our Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Workshops, dinners/lunches, and some of our smaller-scale events at BIA. My role also involves helping my team with tasks leading up to the larger events, and to help with on-the-day-coordination at these conferences & exhibitions.
Previous experience & achievements
I have a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice law and criminology. I previously worked at British Airways Pensions where I was a part of the Committee Servies team and oversaw the Governance and Operations Committee. My role started to shift into overseeing the end-to-end event logistics for in-house corporate events at British Airways Pensions. In this role, I had the opportunity to liaise with large stakeholders in the business would work on various exciting projects with them throughout the year. I also have experience as a wedding event planner and would help with on-the-day-coordination for these events.
If you could invite any scientist or entrepreneur to dinner, who would it be and why?
I would invite Marie Curie as she was the first woman to receive a Nobel Prize and the only woman to receive two Nobel prizes. Marie Curie also has a huge contribution to finding treatments for cancer and has fundamentally changed our understanding of radioactivity.
BIA BioSolutions
A new BIA sub‑brand and dedicated platform championing the UK’s fast‑growing bioeconomy and the transformative power of engineering biology.
