April 12 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Event Navigation
Did you know that nearly half of Fortune 500 companies were founded by first or second generation immigrants? Yet, for most immigrants, making the leap from corporate to entrepreneurial life is a major change that many fear. In this interactive workshop, Zaka’s Co-Founder, Devika Brij, will share the practical steps she took to launch Brij the Gap Consulting after being unjustly terminated from her corporate role as a tech sales leader. Brij the Gap Consulting is a leading learning and development firm that companies like Reddit, Meta, Nike and Visa hire to develop and increase retention of their employees. If you are considering making the shift from corporate to starting your own business, or operating within both at the same time, this session will allow you to learn the exact steps to consider and give you the opportunity to ask questions in a safe space.
