Barjis Chohan Biography

Barjis Chohan is a UK-based fashion designer, social entrepreneur, and professional keynote speaker known for her advocacy for diversity and inclusion in business. She has chosen a career in fashion after studying at the London College of Fashion and interning with designer Vivienne Westwood, rather than pursuing medicine. Chohan no longer holds fashion shows, focusing instead on preventing the objectification of young girls.

Chohan has a rich history of delivering motivational talks at various prestigious organizations, including Aston University, Cass Business School, The Capital Exchange, Burnley College, the London College of Fashion, University of Surrey, Champion Headquarters, GoCompare Headquarters, GFACCT in Colombia, OIC Business Summit in Malaysia, and the Global Pioneers Conference. Her keynote presentations often highlight themes such as women's rights, accessibility of the arts, and maintaining core business ethos during international expansion. Notably, she has expanded her business efforts in the Middle East and passionately discusses using creativity for growth, understanding cultural diversity, gender equity and empowerment, as well as fashion and sustainability in her talks.

Currently, Chohan runs a multidisciplinary design studio and is engaged in a collaborative fashion project with Ukraine Arts Culture, set to be exhibited at The Fine Art Museum in San Francisco in September. Additionally, she is developing a sunglasses range, fulfilling a long-held ambition. Her approach to speaking engagements is characterized as relatable, authentic, and motivational, aiming to inspire audiences to bring the best version of themselves to their endeavors. Through her public speaking and design projects, Chohan is dedicated to making a positive difference in people's lives.

Gender Equity and Empowerment

We tend to think that empowering women is the only way to tackle gender inequality. What about empowering both men and women to understand each other without causing division?

  • Using mentors as a way to create leaders within leaders
  • Bridging the gap of gender inequity by working with men as allies.

Fashion & Sustainability

How can businesses become ethical and sustainable? Is it possible to be 100% Sustainable? Why is sustainability easier to talk about and harder to implement? Barjis has spent 7 years understanding and testing sustainability and has successfully introduced sustainable products to the market.

The keynote will examine:

  • What damage the fashion industry has done to the climate
  • How to create a sustainable plan for your company
  • What are the barriers to success?
  • Why it’s important to re-set and re-evaluate your current sustainability goals?
  • How to take accountability and build a network that will support you in achieving your goals
  • What cost-effective tools can we use immediately to make positive change

To Be Defined is to Be Confined

Barjis believes that she is not defined by her gender, religion and ethnicity. Breaking away from the traditional immigrant story, Barjis chose to pursue Fashion instead of Medicine. Her story is captivating, inspirational and she really knows how to break the glass ceiling.

This keynote will focus on:

  • Sharing Barjis's journey with a punch of humour and wit.
  • Inspire others to follow their dreams.
  • Always lead by example, authenticity and integrity
  • To never lose sight of your "why's"
