Dubbed the most powerful British woman in the tech industry, Mendelsohn has parlayed a highly successful advertising career into a critical role as Facebook's most senior employee outside the US. As such, she is at the forefront of the social networking giant's attempts to combine creativity with technology on behalf of brands, reinforcing her years of experience as executive chairman of Karmarama and president of the Institute of Practitioners in Advertising. Equally important, Mendelsohn has become a high-profile role model for women in marketing and technology, and a prominent advocate for better gender policy.
