About the Event:On November 4th, the iMasons community came together to present the 2019 Diversity & Inclusion award and raise contributions for the $1M Education Challenge. Launched by Infrastructure Masons in 2018, the Diversity & Inclusion Champion Award recognizes and celebrates industry leaders whose contributions have become visible, rewarded, and amplified. The award honors individuals who have demonstrated outstanding leadership and have gone above and beyond to support and advance diversity and inclusion within the digital infrastructure space. This event not only celebrates current leaders but also reinforces our commitment to supporting the next generation of talent through the IM Scholarship Fund, which dedicates 50% of its proceeds to women.

The FinalistsAfter a thorough evaluation of all nominees by a distinguished panel of practitioners, academics, and business leaders, iMasons was pleased to announce the recipient of the 2019 Diversity & Inclusion Champion Award. We extend our warmest congratulations to the winner, Ivonne Valdes, VP of Global Strategic Accounts at Schneider Electric.

Ivonne was selected from an incredible group of finalists, each making a profound impact on our industry. The 2019 award finalists included: Jocelyn DeGrange Graham, Founder, CloudNOWAngela Meah, Operations Director, CoolDCAndrew Stevens, President & CEO, CNet TrainingIvonne Valdes, VP Global Strategic Accounts, Schneider ElectricTamara Yang, Vice President of Organizational Development, Balfour Beatty

Thanks to Our SponsorThis inspiring event and our ongoing Diversity & Inclusion efforts would not be possible without the generous support of our sponsor, EdgeConnex. Their partnership is vital in helping us host these important conversations and celebrate the leaders who are actively building a more inclusive digital future. We are continuously accepting donations to the IM Scholarship Fund and the $1M Education Challenge for those who wish to contribute.
