Diversity, Equity + Inclusion Roundtable & Awards RECAP

As the discussion around diversity, equity, and inclusion continues to evolve, it is worth noting that there is now a mounting collection of evidence to support the fact that organizations that are proactive in DEI efforts perform better as a whole.

It makes sense to take a closer look at the companies in the Valley region that are excelling when it comes to DEI programs.

The San Fernando Valley Business Journal is proud to continue the DEI conversation. We have had the opportunity to hear from – and learn from – some of the top organizations who are going above and beyond to support these efforts in the SFV region.

We’re proud to bring you our second annual profiles in Diversity, Equity + Inclusion – a gathering of spotlights on some of the individuals and organizations that are leading by example through the use of impactful programs and/or proactive initiatives to further excel in the DEI space.

These are some of the most influential thought leaders and best organizations in the nation in terms of DEI, in that they have

demonstrated genuine commitment and bar-raising best practices – and they all happen to be based in the Valley. These outstanding executives, companies, and organizations have repeatedly proven that they know what it takes to create equitable, welcoming environments where people love to come to work. Congratulations to each of the admirable individuals and businesses we honored this year.

Many thanks to our Diamond Sponsor, the David Nazarian College of Business and Economics at CSUN, for their leadership in supporting our diverse Community of Business.
