About Michaela and Ascend Global Media
Michaela Jeffery-Morrison is the co-founder and CEO of Ascend Global Media (formerly Maddox Events), the world’s first (and leading) multi-touch platform specifically engineered for women working in the technology sector. Ascend Global Media helps craft events and communities for women in tech looking to connect with like-minded individuals and brands around the world.
Crafting events both in cyberspace and the real world, Ascend builds communities across countries and industries. Ascend Global Media was founded with one clear mission: to facilitate equality and progress for our global community of amazing women. It does this by providing content, hosting webinars, offering skills workshops and organising networking events to connect women from the global tech ecosystem with each other and inspirational speakers from around the world.
Under Michaela’s direction, the company has gone from strength to strength, earning international recognition. The company won Best Tech Event in the 2020 Conference Awards, Best Tech Event and Best UK Event at the 2020 Eventex Global Awards, and was listed on the Sunday Times Fast Track 100 Index in 2018, 2019 and 2020.
