'Young disruptors' Anisah says she will celebrate her inclusion on the Forbes list by "working - Like every other day"

Coder Anisah Osman Britton is named for the coding school 23 Code Street, which she launched for women and non-binary individuals to help balance a male-dominated industry.

"Apple released a health app that had no period checker a few years ago, that for me was a big catalyst into why we needed more women in the industry," she tells Radio 1 Newsbeat.

23 Code Street not only teaches coding in London, but for every paying student in the UK, The School also educates women in the slums of Mumbai.

"The World is changing so fast and the people Left Behind tend to be The Most disenfranchised," she says.

"In India right now, that's women from The Most disadvantaged communities. "
