Fostering a more diverse and inclusive workplace environment is a key aspect of o9’s culture, which encourages employees to be a force for positive change. To support its goal of increasing the representation of women within the technology and supply chain industries, o9 hosted a virtual panel in 2021 with Girls, Inc., an organization dedicated to equipping young women with the skills to navigate economic, gender and social barriers. o9 also sponsored Girls, Inc.’s 2022 Power to the Girl Conference in Dallas. In addition, o9 recently launched two internal networks: Women in Technology and Rainbo9, both of which are focused on increasing employee engagement and fulfilling the company’s promise to create a truly inclusive workplace.
