GIVING BACKThe Talent Unleashed AwardsAt Talent International, we’re not just about discovering great talent. While we often hear about the industry’s

corporate leaders, it has always occurred to us that the technology sector is really driven by many fantastic, yet

unheralded individuals who are inventive, inspirational, and genuinely passionate about making a difference. Through

the Talent Unleashed Awards our intention and purpose is to recognise and acknowledge these people.

This year, we were delighted to partner with WIRED Magazine and Virgin to shine a light on the UK’s Tech Start-up

community. We were overwhelmed with the depth and quality of entries, all vying to be crowned ‘One to watch in 2015’.

The title was eventually won by Jude Ower, Founder of PlayMob. As part of her winners prize Jude joined winners across

Asia-Pac at the Branson Centre of Entrepreneurship in South Africa.

We look forward to building on our success this year and championing more great tech superstars next year. For further

innovation for people and places with the greatest need.

Talent RISE is a foundation that mobilises the skills and expertise of the technology community to facilitate greater

good across education, employment, entrepreneurship and technological innovation. Talent Rise will give staff and
