Brighton-based business leader and inclusion specialist Mo Kanjilal Williams has been recognised as one of the f:Entrepreneur #ialso100 Top 100 Female Entrepreneurs for 2026, a national campaign celebrating inspirational women who are making a powerful impact across the UK economy.
Mo is the founder and director of Edge Of Difference, a diversity, equity and inclusion consultancy dedicated to transforming workplace culture through immersive training programmes.
She works nationally and internationally, with a strong focus on the fast-growing tech and gaming sectors, helping organisations reach the edges and include voices that are often overlooked.
Mo said: “Inclusion is not a side priority. It is the foundation of strong businesses and a fair society. Being recognised by f:Entrepreneur is a privilege, and I am proud to represent the women who are building change, not just companies.
“The next generation of leaders is already here. My mission is to ensure they are seen, supported and included.”
After rising to senior leadership roles in global technology companies, Mo experienced the barriers faced by women and underrepresented groups firsthand. These experiences shaped her conviction that the industries shaping our future must reflect the diversity of the people they serve.
She later co-founded a multi-award-winning inclusion consultancy and went on to establish Edge Of Difference in 2025. The business has grown quickly, delivering bespoke training, leadership development, Future Talent Programmes and inclusion strategy support.
Mo is known for her fearless voice, her TEDx talk The Value of Our Differences and her ability to combine lived experience with business strategy.
Mo’s impact extends across sectors. She is a non-executive director for Here, Care Unbound, a social enterprise addressing healthcare inequalities, and vice chair of trustees for The Clock Tower Sanctuary, a charity supporting young people facing homelessness. She sits on advisory boards for TechNative Digital and AgencyLand Network, and has mentored young women through The Girls’ Network since 2017.
Mo has just secured a new publishing deal with Trotman Publishing for a book about future talent and the next generation of leaders to be published in 2026. This follows her co-authored book The Inclusion Journey, published by Kogan Page.
She regularly speaks at conferences across the UK and curates events that bring communities together, including Brighton Summit, Women In Tech SEO and Silicon Brighton.
