One of the top goals for many companies in the tech industry is to focus on building a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive workforce. It is also one of our top goals at VentureFizz in terms of helping to support companies on this important mission.
Companies have different approaches as it relates to how they are addressing their diversity, equity, and inclusion goals, so we thought that it would be valuable to profile companies and what they are doing to accomplish their DEI initiatives.

“Thank you for organizing the iBelong presentation on Black maternal health. This is a topic I’d never thought about before, and I learned a lot. This kind of event also reinforces to me that Imprivata is a company cares about people, and that is really important to me as an employee – it makes me proud to work here.”
