CEOs Who Give Back
When it comes to finding ways to give back to our communities and the world at large, Alliance members contribute an enormous amount of their time, energy and passions to a wide range of worthy initiatives inside and out of their professional roles. Here, we highlight the impactful work of just a few of our Alliance members: Stéphane Bette of SpineGuard, Peter Cooperstein of Amici’s East Coast Pizzeria, Ross Fernandes of Q Analysts, Marc Guillet of Agile Physical Therapy, Mark Johnsen of Wealth Architects, Rod Kalune of RK Logistics Group, Michel Lopez of e2f and Sandy Walker of the YMCA of Silicon Valley. We invite all Alliance members to share with us their stories of giving back so we may continue to engage, support, educate and inspire one another.
Alliance Community Activities
Several Alliance Roundtables held throughout this past quarter provided invaluable opportunities for Alliance members to leverage the community’s collective insights and discuss a wide range of industry-specific topics, including: our Alliance CyberSecurity Roundtable on April 25th hosted by Alliance member Craig Hinkley of WhiteHat Security, our Alliance Professional Services Roundtable on April 25th hosted by Alliance member Andy Berkenfield of Duncan Channon and our Alliance “Transforming Transportation” Roundtable on May 22nd hosted by Alliance member Stefan Heck of Nauto. Alliance members and their guests from throughout the Bay Area gathered together on May 23rd to enjoy our 2019 Alliance Spring Dinner at the Silicon Valley Capital Club.
Nuggets From Behind Closed Doors
There are hundreds of years of experience inside every private Alliance meeting. While protecting the confidentiality of the member who challenged their private Alliance Group to “sit in their seat,” we’ve captured just a few of the insightful comments from a handful of members. Read how Sanjay Bonde of Wintec Industries and Gabriel Fairman of Bureau Works would address the challenges faced by two of their fellow Alliance members.
