For Missing Perspectives’ latest instalment of ‘Leave It On The Table,’ created in partnership with HP and Charlotte Ree, a dinner table conversation featuring women discussing the future of women in business will roll out as short-form videos across Missing Perspectives’ platforms.
Hosted by author and cook Charlotte Ree, the new instalment of the social-first series gathered Angela Priestley (Women’s Agenda), Emily Vernem (Mamamia), Canna Campbell (SugarMammaTV), and creators Emma Kaye and Kee Reece. Over food and wine, the group unpacked everything from equity in education to the invisible load of entrepreneurship, and how technology shapes – and sometimes reshapes – women’s ability to create, lead, and thrive in the business space and beyond.
When Leave It On The Table first launched back in May, the series cracked open conversations about values, relationships, and women’s online safety. Now, with HP on board, the focus has shifted to the realities of building businesses and futures.
With 58 per cent of Australian SMBs already using AI tools, the conversation around tech is essential. Yet as this dinner revealed, access to innovation doesn’t always equal readiness. For many women in business, success is shaped not just by bold ideas, but by the systems, and technology, that support them. Small businesses don’t need more complexity. They need technology that simply works, supports hybrid teams, and gives them confidence for the future.
“There’s something incredibly powerful about a group of women coming together. Different stories, same determination. These Leave It On The Table dinners remind us we’re not alone in the juggle; we’re all doing our best, and that’s enough. HP doesn’t just keep us connected — they champion our growth, our grit, and our goals,” Charlotte Ree said.
As the guests swapped stories of late nights, side hustles, and ambition colliding with reality, one theme was constant: the need for support.
“Every woman at that table has a story about carrying more than she should – whether in business, family, or society at large. The conversation was a reminder that real progress happens when women have both community and the systems that let them focus on both creativity and impact,” Phoebe Saintilan-Stocks, founder of Missing Perspectives said.
“For HP, this partnership is about showing up as more than just a hardware brand. Instead, it’s about being a quiet but powerful partner for women – removing barriers, streamlining the small stuff, and letting entrepreneurs focus on what matters most,” Saintilan-Stocks added.
“We’re not just producing content – we’re capturing a cultural moment. With Leave It On The Table, we wanted to create a safe and interesting place on the internet for women and gender-diverse folk to engage in critical thinking and meaty conversations,” Allie Daisy King, social lead at Missing Perspectives said.
“Technology should be an enabler, not a barrier for women building businesses. Through the Leave It On The Table series, we’re creating space for female founders to share their stories and access tools that meet their real-world needs. These women are time-poor, resource-stretched, and deeply resilient. By connecting them with tech designed to support their pace and ambition, we’re helping accelerate their impact and shape a more inclusive future of work,” Shannon Harris, NZ MD HP added.
