Atif Choudhury is a renowned neurodiversity and inclusion speaker who is widely recognised for his work advancing social entrepreneurship, accessibility and justice. As the Co-Founder and CEO of Calling All Minds, Atif operates at the intersection of inclusion and technology, developing practical strategies that help organisations build environments where everyone can thrive. His work focuses on transforming how businesses understand neurodiversity, disability and intersectionality, positioning him as a highly respected voice within the diversity, equity and inclusion space. Through his speaking engagements, Atif challenges traditional approaches to inclusion and equips organisations with the insight and tools needed to create meaningful, lasting change.
Atif began his career in sales before moving into the field of assistive technology, where he developed a deep understanding of accessibility and workplace inclusion. He later became a Senior Assistive Technology Trainer at the University of Westminster, supporting students and professionals in using technology to overcome barriers to education and employment. During this time, Atif also co-founded Zaytoun, the world’s first Fair Trade Palestinian Olive Oil Cooperative, where he currently serves as Campaigns Director. This early work demonstrated his commitment to ethical trade, social justice and empowering marginalised communities. In 2011, Atif co-founded Calling All Minds, an organisation dedicated to making inclusion scalable, ethical and proactively human, using technology and innovative thinking to remove barriers for neurodiverse and disabled individuals.
Throughout his career, Atif has played an influential role across a number of leading organisations focused on accessibility and disability rights. He serves as an adviser to the World Health Organisation Rapid Assistive Technologies Board and is a trustee of Disability Rights UK, one of the country’s largest disability charities. In recognition of his leadership within the inclusion space, he has also been appointed as a judge for the Shaw Trust Disability Power 100 and served on the advisory board for Neurodiversity in Business. Through his work with Calling All Minds, Atif has supported more than 100,000 individuals and over 200 organisations in building more inclusive systems. He has also delivered keynote sessions at major industry events, including the Health and Wellbeing at Work conference in Birmingham.
Atif is hired as a diversity, equity and inclusion speaker because of his ability to combine lived experience with practical organisational insight. His talks explore how businesses can move beyond accommodation towards designing systems that expect different minds and perspectives from the outset. Drawing on his work with global organisations, public sector institutions and community initiatives, Atif provides audiences with actionable frameworks for creating inclusive cultures. His sessions challenge audiences to rethink accessibility, mental health and intersectionality, leaving leaders better equipped to dismantle barriers and create environments where diverse talent can succeed.
“Atif’s approach puts the individual at the heart of his work, recognising people are the greatest asset of an organisation and they provide the diversity of thought for success in this ever changing world. Atif demonstrates an incredible approach to supporting all individuals. His presentations effectively highlight the immense innovation, dedication, and commitment contributed by people with disabilities, those who are neurodivergent, and individuals from minority groups. He is a strong advocate for equity, ensuring that tailored resources and support are provided to meet the unique needs of each person, enabling everyone to have an equal opportunity to succeed. Atif recognises that every individual is different and believes in offering personalised support to help each person thrive. He is also open to challenging conversations and sharing diverse viewpoints, fostering an environment where people and organisations can maximise the potential of their team.”
“I have worked alongside Atif as Trustees at Disabilities Rights UK and through this relationships developed an appreciation of Atifs detailed understanding and knowledge around Disability, Equity and Intersectionality. Atif has an ability to apply detailed and depth of thought to these areas of development and transforms this into workable steps to achieve sound outcomes. Atif is able to make this a thoroughly enjoyable experience that creates connection for everyone involved.”
“I met Atif through the Disability Power 100, where he was rightfully recognised for his work and impact, and later became a valued DP100 judge. Spending time with Atif is truly a pleasure, as he has the gift of creating spaces for conversations that genuinely help you grow, make you comfortably uncomfortable, and consistently inspire you to be better. What stands out about Atif is his empathetic, human, and inclusive approach, which encourages you to be brave and open to new ideas, challenge your own beliefs and biases, and invariably helps make your world larger and more accessible.”
