fyi spent a dozen or so hours populating the speaker candidate list, trying to find under-represented voices working in tech, so lots of leads in there: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vYHlDGx3Mez1r1h6FDfybS_KQIhjnoJzgr1XcYcJdlE/edit#gid=0

Rich Mason or Lola Brittain of Wings (an ethical bike food delivery co-op) might be willing to speak. They are building a company under a worker co-operative model. https://wings.coop (Rich also works closely with CooperativesUK)

Added to /speaker-booking spreadsheet

Not sure how it happened, but misunderstood in what capacity Shu was working with Fang. Mentioned her in meetup and tweet, but it made her really worried about immigration, as she's not actually working with Dark Matter Labs :(

@ruth.wetters wondering the status of the bookings are in the /speaker-booking spreadsheet, specifically whether we can add names and topics to the meetup events
patcon 21:13:59
If they are created, we can tweet and start promoting around in various channels :)
