We are extremely proud of RHSB alumna Clementine Brown who has been selected as a finalist in the prestigious Women of the Future awards this year, held at the London Hilton Bankside on 15 November.

The Women of the Future Awards are a platform for successful young women in Britain. For seventeen years, the awards have shone a light on trailblazing women working in all fields, from science to community work, academia to sport. These awards have gone a long way towards shifting gender stereotypes, and spring-boarding talent to great heights.

Clementine has been shortlisted for the Community Spirits category. After leaving RHSB, she studied Arabic & Persian at Oxford and then started working as a data analyst for the UN. In 2018, she co-founded CodeBrave, a non-profit training disadvantaged youth in Lebanon in coding, robotics, and AI – tools to lift themselves out of poverty. In 2021, she set up a social enterprise, CodeBrave Tutors, to fund the charity sustainably. CodeBrave has received recognition from Wired ME as one of the early-stage start-ups poised to transform the Middle East, and was also listed in the Deloitte Fast50 Technology Companies in 2022.
