Sergio Panday
CEO
Roots Inspire
Raised by a single mom on a secretary salary, the odds of a successful, international career in corporate banking were not in Sergio Panday's favour. After an 18-year long career in banking, leading various product and client teams, Sergio Panday is now determined to increase ethnic diversity across corporate leadership positions.
Following the events in 2020, Sergio and his co-founder decided that enough is enough and a uniquely different approach is required to build more ethnically diverse leadership pipelines. Utilising modern technology, they built a platform to create change - at scale! Involving over 75 ethnic corporate leaders from various industries, they built a programme that changes individual career trajectories, company cultures and industries at large - and the results so far, have been incredible!
