Women of AI

What Women of AI does

Women of AI (WOAI), trading as Kolo Digital Limited, is a London-based B2B speaker bureau and talent agency founded in 2025 that exclusively represents women experts in artificial intelligence for speaking engagements, training, and strategic advisory work. The company curates a roster of 100+ women AI practitioners drawn from organizations including Google, Amazon, BBC, Rolls-Royce, NATO, UNESCO, and the Alan Turing Institute, and operates three core service lines: AI keynote bookings, AI training programs (covering Microsoft Copilot, Claude, and ChatGPT, plus 'Become an AI Trainer' certification delivered through a partnership with AI For Non-Techies), and tiered event formats that include bespoke online events (from £7K), signature event sponsorships (from £5K), AI Strategy Boardrooms (from £8K), the annual International Women's Day AI Summit in London (150-200 attendees), and the AI & Marketing Summit. A community membership subscription adds a recurring-revenue layer with access to 55+ thought leaders and curated content.

WOAI's go-to-market is consultative and event-driven: direct enterprise sales targeting corporates, SMEs, and event organizers across the UK, EU, and USA, complemented by website inbound, partnership referrals, and sponsored events that function as both revenue and pipeline. Reported scale metrics include 53 clients served, 49 speaker bookings and 47 trainer bookings completed in 2025, audience reach across 31 countries and 16 industries, and a 51% C-suite attendee mix on bespoke events. The firm has five employees, no disclosed external funding, and is founder-owned (co-founded by Sharona Hutton and Jamie-Lee Hutton). The company's operating logic rests on a structural supply imbalance — the stated premise that only 22% of AI professionals are women — to justify a niche, differentiation-first positioning in the corporate events and training market.

• Chartwell Speakers: Chartwell is a UK-based speakers bureau representing experts across technology, business, and policy. It competes with WOAI for enterprise keynote bookings, particularly in the AI and technology verticals.
• London Speaker Bureau: London Speaker Bureau is an international speakers bureau with offices across EMEA and APAC. It is a direct competitor to WOAI's enterprise speaker-booking motion, particularly for global enterprise events.
• JLA (London Speaker Bureau): JLA is one of the UK's largest speakers bureaus, booking keynote speakers and talent for corporate events. It is a direct competitor to WOAI's speaker-booking service line, with much broader category coverage but no niche focus on women AI experts.

Emerging players

• The Female Quotient: The Female Quotient is a diversity-focused media and talent platform producing events and content around women in business and technology. It overlaps with WOAI on the women-in-business event sponsorship and speaker booking side, though it is broader than AI specifically.
• AI4ALL: AI4ALL is a US-based nonprofit focused on increasing diversity and inclusion in AI through education and community programs. AI4ALL's Co-CEO (Oliviana Bailey) is on WOAI's speaker roster, and the two organizations intersect on women-in-AI education and community building.

Broad incumbents

• Harry Walker Agency: Harry Walker is a long-established US speakers bureau representing high-profile figures across categories. It is a broad incumbent offering an alternative channel for enterprise buyers seeking AI speakers, without WOAI's women-only differentiation.
