She is the co-founder of MyoMaster, one of the UK's fastest growing health and wellness businesses, which she founded alongside her rugby player husband Joe Gray in response to his recurrent injuries. Following his 12th major injury, Joe fashioned the first MyoMaster massage gun prototype at their kitchen table from a dismantled drill and a welded stool leg. Seeing the results for his own recovery, and his teammates, Joe and Lottie quickly realized the potential of launching a range of recovery products. Backed by her communications experience, her faith in the product, and a competitive nature, Lottie made it her mission to make professional physical wellness products accessible to the everyday person. Now, she and Joe continue their work to revolutionize recovery and build the global home of physical optimization. In addition to her work with MyoMaster, Lottie works to make the entrepreneurial road smoother for those attempting to follow in her footsteps. She is a board member of YourStory, a charity focused on helping children and young people reach their greatest potential, as well as a highly sought after speaker, sharing her expertise in both business and personal growth.

Amy Webb

Amy Webb may not be a superhero – but she does have a powerful ability to anticipate trends and emerging technology that will disrupt tomorrow. And she can envision and help prepare for the impact they’ll have on business and society. Now she’s teaching others, including corporate leaders, innovators and governments, to do the same. Founder of the Future Today Strategy Group, Webb is a renowned futurist and strategist. For her, it’s not simply an interest; it’s a profession and a passion. Nor is “forecasting the future” about creating fantastical scenarios. Webb doesn’t simply make speculations or predictions; her work is evidence based, drawn from mapping and modeling quantitative and qualitative data collected in the present to understand what’s coming (5-20 years from now). Named to the 2017 Thinkers50 Radar list of management thinkers most likely to shape the future – and winner of its 2017 Distinguished Achievement Award – Webb is already making an impact on today’s Fortune 500 and Global 1000 companies, government agencies, large nonprofits, universities and startups worldwide. Focusing on the intersection of technology, business and society, she takes a purposefully broad lens to her work. When thinking about the future, most only look at their industry and direct competitors. Webb is adamant about looking at multiple, adjacent landscapes. “You have to be able to see the top of the forest in order to see where all the trees are and how they connect,” she says.
