Après was delighted to be chosen to participate in Fast Company’s second-annual “Innovation Festival” earlier this month. We were selected as one of five companies with purpose to be featured at the “Find Your Mission: Deepen Your Purpose” breakfast panel discussion, where Jennifer Gefsky joined a stellar group of entrepreneurs who are doing inspiring work.
Après also hosted a sold-out “Fast Track” event for Innovation Festival attendees at the offices of our corporate partner Smartling (link to Smartling’s jobs page). Jen led a fascinating discussion about what companies can do to attract and retain strong female talent and was joined by Nikki Waller, Global Management Editor for The Wall Street Journal; Belinda Jettar, the Americas Lead for Internal Mobility & Diversity Recruiting for Credit Suisse; Tara Amaral, SVP, Head of Talent Acquisition, Connected Talent for Fidelity Investments, and Matt DeLoca, VP of Channels and Alliances, Smartling.
