Meet the Speakers at Everyone Doing It Together 2025
Equality, diversity, and inclusion (DEI) in marketing isn’t a trend — it’s a responsibility. Yet across the industry, we’re seeing budgets cut, roles lost, and multicultural marketing underfunded. But lived experiences haven’t disappeared and neither should our commitment to creating meaningful, inclusive change.
That’s why Everyone Doing It Together, GottaBe! Ethnic’s flagship event, returns for its fourth year on Thursday 16th October 2025 at The Trampery, Shoreditch, London.
This isn’t just another industry gathering… it’s a space for senior marketers and communications professionals who know that inclusion isn’t optional. Here, bold ideas, honest conversations, and practical steps forward take centre stage.
Why This Event Matters
In today’s climate, DEI often falls down the priority list.
Organisations face pressures to cut costs and prove ROI, which can make taking risks on inclusion feel daunting. But without action, we risk leaving diverse audiences unheard, overlooked, or underserved. Everyone Doing It Together exists to challenge that. It’s about creating a safe, honest space to share challenges, explore what works, and inspire action — together.
