Founded in 2025 by two Millennials, Louise O’Driscoll, social entrepreneur, and Melissa Harrison, international pianist, Manifest Edit is a platform positioned at the intersection of emerging and established generations. This perspective enables it to work effectively across differing political, social, and cultural viewpoints, facilitating dialogue between Gen Z, Gen Alpha, and Baby Boomers with care, credibility, and nuance. If generational labels feel unclear, we are always happy to help navigate them.

​

Operating from our creative studio in Canary Wharf, London, and globally through a hybrid model, Manifest Edit encourages the inclusion of arts and youth voices within convening and decision-making spaces. It was established in response to a recurring gap: researchers, artists, and practitioners are often recognised for their output but rarely invited to speak openly about their thinking, values, and lived experience. Academic leaders are seldom engaged for the human dimensions of their work; artists developing pioneering solutions are frequently confined to their craft alone; and individuals with clear visions for the future often lack credible spaces to develop them. Manifest Edit provides a trusted environment for both public dialogue and closed-door conversation.

​

Manifest Edit represents:

• Young people undertaking substantive and innovative work within their industries but who lack support systems that understand their unique entrepreneurial journeys

• Academic and institutional leaders who don't just want change - but are open to an intergenerational view on development and signing the contract that makes change possible

• Artists and journalists who deal with sensitive, sustainable and emerging subjects, whose practice contributes to cultural understanding and change

​

You bring the voice; Manifest Edit provides the platform.

We welcome conversations with visionary thinkers at all stages of life. Alongside our podcast and social media campaigns, we greatly appreciate personal speaking and convening opportunities to represent our community at a national UK and global level.
