Why age should not define us, with George Lee

Age defines us. Simple. That’s how it’s always been, but it’s a belief system that George Lee is setting out to challenge.

With her organisation The Age of No Retirement, George and co-founder Jonathan aim to create a world where our age does not define us, by shattering age barriers and ageist stereotypes to create an inclusive future.

George shares research findings and fascinating insights into ageism and the work she is doing at The Age of No Retirement.

George Lee is a serial entrepreneur. With a background in psychology, George’s first business was a design company, This is Real Art, founded with the aim of making radical change through the power of design and radical creative thinking. 

In 2012 she launched Commonland, a studio dedicated to using design-thinking to tackle big social issues. In 2016, George was voted as one of the world’s 50 Creative Leaders by the world’s leading creative and innovation magazine, Creative Review.
