iTalent Digital announced that CEO and Founder Renée La Londe was named to Inc.’s seventh annual Female Founders list, honoring 250 women whose innovations and ideas are shaping the world into a better place.
Each year, Inc. editors review thousands of applications highlighting female founders who are challenging the status quo and tackling some of the world’s biggest problems. The list features women who have overcome challenges and lifted those around them, while leading impactful organizations across the country. They join the ranks of previous honorees including Jessica Alba, Tracee Ellis Ross, Rihanna, and Shonda Rhimes.
“It’s an honor to be included in a group of women who have relentlessly pursued their visions and have had the tenacity to challenge the status quo and shatter paradigms in their respective industries,” said Renée La Londe. “I salute Inc. for recognizing women who pave the path for the generations to come.”
Among the achievements that the Inc. judging panels noted was Ms. La Londe’s pioneering application of artificial intelligence to solve pressing enterprise problems related to customer experience, talent acquisition, and digital transformation. Her company’s revenue growth of 54% over the past three years was also a consideration.
Inc. editors gave high marks to Renée’s commitment to closing the gender gap in the tech industry, including the founding of GLAM, a nonprofit organization that introduces girls aged 8-12 to the world of entrepreneurship and technology, and exposes them to inspirational women role models.
Inc. Executive Editor Diana Ransom said, “The past year, for many, will go down as one of the hardest ever—between a funding freeze and ad-spending pullback. The female founders on this year’s list are a testament to what triumph over adversity looks like. They should all be proud of this singular accomplishment.”
