About Georgie
A Forbes 30 Under 30 honouree, European Female AI Leader of the Year, and Cambridge-trained engineer, Georgie Steele is Co-Founder and CTO of Maiven, a climate tech startup building AI systems that make complex regulation actionable at scale. She raised £1.5M pre-seed in two weeks and shipped the MVP two months later, a platform combining retrieval-augmented generation, proprietary scoring, and expert-in-the-loop feedback for enterprise customers. Before Maiven, she led technical teams at McLaren, Tractable, and Sylvera, scaling backend platforms tenfold, contributing to a unicorn valuation, and building consistently in high-stakes, fast-moving environments.
Georgie is also a committed advocate for diversity in tech, having founded mentoring schemes that have supported over 100 underrepresented technologists and represented UN Women UK at the UN Commission on the Status of Women. She speaks on what it actually takes to build trustworthy AI products.
