One Million Voices is delighted to be partnering with The Conduit for an evening with Asma Khan, one of the United Kingdom's brightest culinary stars.
In a thought-provoking conversation with Catia Dal Poz, founder of One Million Voices, Asma will share her inspirational story and reflect on the pivotal moments that have shaped her career. Well-known for her acclaimed London-based restaurant Darjeeling Express with an all-female kitchen team, she has become an unstoppable force for women's empowerment and a leading voice for diversity and inclusion in the hospitality industry and beyond.
As she recently says in an article for British Vogue: "I have made it my mission to hire individuals from all walks of life, and of varying ages and abilities. My team is a diverse collective that delivers world-class food and service to each and every customer. I see the way that they respect and value each other, and how they are inspiring the next generation."
Join us for this special evening on the 09th of October where Asma will share her captivating journey in which food plays a central role in building bridges and serving as a powerful tool for change.
