More About

Georgia Elliott-Smith is the founder of Element Four and Chair of Engineers Without Borders UK, recognised for her “disruptive sustainability” approach that cuts through greenwash to drive meaningful, systemic change. Her speaking style is bold, engaging, and transformative.
She has expertly moderated panels at major international events, including The New York Times Climate Forward, Blue Earth Summit, the European Climate Change Summit, and leading industry conferences. Whether speaking to C-suite leaders, policymakers, or professional institutions, Georgia has a rare ability to turn complex sustainability challenges into clear, practical, and actionable insight.

As a moderator, Georgia thrives in high-stakes, multi-stakeholder discussions—challenging assumptions, balancing perspectives, and creating space for meaningful dialogue. Audiences leave energised, informed, and ready to act, equipped with a deeper understanding of risks, opportunities, and the courage to move from superficial commitments to real, impactful change.

Beyond her corporate work, Georgia is a committed environmental activist and the founder of Fighting Dirty, a nonprofit that uses the law to strengthen national environmental policy. She led a landmark legal challenge against the UK government over exclusions in the Emissions Trading Scheme, prompting national debate and contributing to regulatory reform. Her activism positions her as a fearless advocate for environmental and social justice, ensuring sustainability is grounded in fairness, equity, and intergenerational responsibility. She has twice been recognised as the UK’s leading environmental campaigner in the ENDS Report Power List.
