Justine Roberts is the CEO and Founder of Mumsnet and Gransnet, transforming parenting support through digital platforms that connect millions of parents seeking practical advice and community engagement.
After leaving a city career, Justine founded Mumsnet in 2000 following a disappointing "family-friendly" holiday in Florida. Despite launching amid the dot-com crash, her resilience and low-overhead business model helped the platform thrive. Today, Mumsnet attracts 14 million unique visitors monthly, while her later venture Gransnet serves the over-50s community with specialised content and support.
Roberts' entrepreneurial vision addresses modern parenting challenges by creating accessible digital spaces where parents can exchange knowledge without wading through countless books. Her platforms tackle practical issues from childbirth to career advice, holiday planning to health concerns, offering peer-supported solutions to everyday parenting dilemmas in an increasingly isolated society.
Audiences gain actionable insights on building resilient digital communities, transforming passions into successful business models, and understanding how authentic user-generated content drives sustainable growth. Her presentations reveal practical strategies for creating platforms that genuinely serve their communities.
Book Justine Roberts for a masterclass in digital community building from a leader whose CBE recognition and inclusion among the world's 500 most influential CEOs reflect her transformative impact.
