In this podcast MediaCat’s Opinions Editor Mike Piggott spoke to Simon Akers (founder and partner at Archmon) and Jaz Poke (Business Development Director EMEA at Omnicom Media Group), co-founders of new industry initiative, Neurodiversity in Media (NDIM). They discussed how the initiative got started and why there is a need for it in the industry, NDIM’s Manifesto and what change and action they’d like to see from industry leaders, and how there is simultaneously both more understanding of neurodiversity in the industry right now, but also still a lot of neurodiverse ignorance to overcome.

If you work in the industry and would like to get involved and understand ways you can get your agency or brand involved, see Simon’s post here, or head to their Substack and subscribe.
