Heather Langton Chief People Officer Spark New Zealand Heather embedded gender equity into governance, leadership and AI‑led workforce design at Spark, one of the largest tech companies in New Zealand. She developed Spark’s Diversity and Inclusion Policy as a Boardlevel policy, owned by the Chief People Officer, meaning inclusion goals are governed and resourced at the same level as financial and operational performance - a standard rarely achieved in New Zealand’s technology sector, where women represent only 27 percent of the workforce.

She also developed Te Awe, Spark’s internal skills acceleration hub, as an equitable capability pathway with a stated long-term ambition to grow diverse talent pipelines that extend into the broader community, with a focus on Māori and Pasifika progression.

Filipa Chambel Software Engineer Elanco Filipa is a true ‘rising star’ who joined Elanco’s AI team while still an undergraduate and became a primary driver of its global agentic modelling strategy. She designed and implemented Elanco’s global Parent Agent AI orchestration layer, which was described by senior leadership as a major revelation. This architecture eased the technical bottleneck that would occur when adding new capabilities to the AI platform and allows for modular, scalable growth.

Filipa helped define the standards for how agents should interact, learn and deliver data within a global corporate ecosystem. Her ability to map AI capabilities to specific business pain points delivers a clear ROI.
