Dr Dan Luo won an unfair dismissal case against Blue Strawberry AI at a London employment tribunal.

Co-directors had accused her of sleeping at her desk and showing the work commitment of a school leaver.

The tribunal found the company failed to follow proper performance management or disciplinary procedures.

Dr Luo was also awarded damages for unauthorised wage deductions and a breach of contract regarding notice pay.
