InContext Episode 1
Power Moves: Women Building Women
In the first episode of InContext, we unpack what “Give to Gain” really means in the tech industry — not as charity, and not as formal mentorship — but as the intentional act of creating space for other women to grow, lead, and be seen. For International Women’s Day 2026, the theme Give to Gain reminds us that progress in competitive industries doesn’t happen in isolation. In tech, where speed, scale, and visibility determine opportunity, making space is power.
This episode with Vero Senior Advisor Chatrine Siswoyo and Em Board Advisor and tech leader Amy Kunrojpanya explores how women in tech can give access instead of advice, visibility instead of validation, and opportunity instead of competition.
In Southeast Asia’s tech ecosystem — fast-moving, high-growth, and deeply network-driven — access often determines acceleration. Who gets looped into conversations. Who gets recommended for stretch roles. Who gets introduced to decision-makers. These moments of inclusion shape careers more than we openly acknowledge.

Pride and PR: When Brands Enter Cultural Conversations
As Pride Month brings conversations around inclusion and representation to the forefront, we sat down for a conversation with the one and only Thammachad to discuss what that looks like from both sides of a campaign.
Hosted by our very own Senior Account Manager Pawinee Choksirichat and Senior KOLs and Influencer Specialist Nattee Phusitthichiraphon, our Pride and PR episode is an honest conversation around community marketing, creator partnerships, and authentic allyship.
Together, we explore how brands can move beyond rainbow logos, build trust with communities through consistent action, and create campaigns that feel like a shared success for everyone involved.
