Athena Alliance
Athena Alliance is a subscription community and learning platform that helps senior women executives build what it calls a 'Portfolio of Impact' - advancing into the C-suite, onto corporate boards, and into investing, entrepreneurship, and thought leadership. Founded in 2016 by Coco Brown, it blends a curated peer network, a learning library, 1:1 coaching, live salons, and direct board-opportunity matching. Its membership spans leaders from companies like Microsoft, Alphabet, Disney, Databricks, and Stripe, and the organization says it has helped place hundreds of women on corporate boards.
Uplimit
Uplimit is an AI-native enterprise learning platform that helps companies upskill employees and customers at scale. Born from the online course startup CoRise, the company rebuilt itself around generative AI in 2023 and now offers purpose-built AI agents for skill-building, program management, and teaching support - automating course authoring, real-time feedback, and cohort management so a single team can train thousands of learners simultaneously. Led by ex-Coursera enterprise founder Julia Stiglitz, Uplimit reports course completion rates of 75-94%, far above typical e-learning, and serves customers including GE HealthCare, Kraft Heinz, Procore, Databricks, Gusto, and Clay.
