BounceX Announces Winners of the First-Annual Equality Impact Award

    NEW YORK, NY, August 14, 2018 /24-7PressRelease/ -- BounceX, the New York-based marketing technology company, today announced the winners of the first-annual Equality Impact Award.

Historically and notoriously unequal, the tech industry has already come a long way in terms of promoting diversity and inclusion. Much of this success has been due to the amazing women and female-identifying people that break glass ceilings everyday.

Whether fighting for equal pay or championing diversity and inclusion, these women stand on the battlelines, ensuring that the workplace is better for themselves and all the women who come after them.

In honor of these women and in celebration of Women's Equality Day on August 26, BounceX launched The Equality Impact Awards, awarded to an honorary group of women in the tech, publishing and retail industries, each of whom has broken barriers, changed their companies for the better and fought for equality and gender parity.

This year, BounceX selected 13 winners:

Aliza Licht, EVP Brand Marketing & Communications at Alice + Olivia
Angela Gruszka, VP Marketing + Creative at ABC Carpet & Home
Dawn Hayes, Educator, Social Entrepreneur & Creative Technologist at TechHire & Open Code
Elizabeth Windram, VP of Marketing at JetBlue
Emily Culp, Chief Marketing Officer at Keds
Gracia Amico, Non-Exec Director at Ruroc
Kelly Wenzel, Director of Global Marketing at Amazon
Siara Nazir, Global Head of Digital Marketing at Autodesk

Sutian Dong, Partner at Female Founders Fund
Vanessa Liu, Vice President at SAP.io
Veronica Gonzalez, Chief of Staff & VP, Head of Business and Legal Affairs at Outbrain
Whitney Hillyer, Chief Customer Officer at BounceX

BounceX will donate in each of the winners' names to Dress For Success, a charity that provides professional attire for low-income women to help support their job-search and interview process.

BounceX will also host events throughout the year for the honorees with the goal of creating a community of women that fight for equality in New York, the larger U.S. and abroad.
