Bold Ventures for a Better World

Carole, founder of Aidos, is helping to keep schools and students safe from deepfake image abuse. Aidos is an AI safeguarding tool that makes children and teachers in photos unidentifiable—protecting them from exploitation, blackmail, and harmful manipulation.

Murray Dare, founder of Boone, is leading a new frontier in nutrition, where food and genetics work together to improve health, longevity and performance. Boone uses AI to analyse everyday meals and connect them with your unique biology, turning nutrition into actionable, personal insights.

We’ll hear how both Carole and Murray have achieved remarkable momentum in a short time—along with their motivations as founders, their journeys so far, and the challenges and breakthroughs along the way. We’ll also take a look at how their tools work and explore their potential to scale and make a real difference in people’s lives.

We’ve also invited a few special sofa guests—leading voices in education, health, and AI—to share their thoughts. Their insights will open up into a broader audience discussion.

Come and join us for a truly inspirational evening, and enjoy connecting with other Norfolk Network leaders and entrepreneurs as we celebrate the close of a busy and successful year of events.
