Preeti Malkani is a Chairwoman of the Supervisory Board and Co-founder of Women for Women International Germany. With Indian and German roots, and a career that spans global advertising, entrepreneurship and humanitarian leadership, Preeti has dedicated her work to empowering women in conflict zones and rethinking how we talk about power and inclusion. In this conversation, we speak about the moments that shaped her path, the stories she’s witnessed in places like Rwanda, Iraq and Bosnia.

It’s about time we really talk about beauty tech, what it already looks like in parts of Asia, and what it could become in our homes in the next few years, in ways we probably can’t even imagine yet. That’s exactly what we explore in this episode with Wanfen Xia, CMO and Managing Director at Ulike Europe. Wanfen brings a clear and grounded perspective on where the beauty-tech sector is heading. We talk about how advanced Asian markets already are, what Europe can learn from them, and how new self-care routines might soon become a natural part of everyday life at home.
