About the Event
Hosted by iMasons’ Embrace, this special member meeting will feature a dynamic and insightful conversation on the importance of diversity within the engineering community. Join us as we explore the barriers faced by underrepresented groups in the industry—and the actions we can all take to foster a more inclusive, innovative, and equitable future.
This event will spotlight two distinguished leaders and changemakers in engineering:
- Dr. Ollie Folayan MBE, CEng, FIChemE
Co-Founder, AFBE (Association for Black and Minority Ethnic Engineers) - Dr. Nike Folayan, MBE, PhD, CEng, FIET

Together, they will share their personal journeys, lessons learned, and how the AFBE is creating real-world impact through advocacy, mentorship, and structural change.
