Imafidon also hosts talks, writes books like She’s in CTRL (2022), and engages with major companies and policymakers to promote inclusion in science and technology.

She has worked with Hewlett-Packard, Deutsche Bank, and the British Science Association, and serves as Chancellor of Glasgow Caledonian University. Recognised with an MBE and numerous innovation awards, Imafidon continues to redefine representation and leadership in STEM.
