SAN DIEGO, May 8, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- RippleNami, Inc., a global technology company offering the first blockchain data visualization platform, announces today that its chairman and chief executive officer, Jaye Connolly-LaBelle, is a finalist in Athena's 21st Annual Pinnacle Awards. This celebration is a staple in California's technology and life sciences sectors, convening 600+ industry leaders to honor those advancing careers of women in the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) fields.
In developing nations, women suffer from a multitude of market and cultural disadvantages. For example, African women farmers are locked out of land ownership, do not have childcare, lack access to proper tools, fertilizer or banks, and are denied basic economic freedoms. Young African girls spend six hours every day, gathering water and vital provisions rather than learning in school or working to support their families. That's why RippleNami is empowering these deserving women and children so they too can benefit from society's rapid digital transformation. RippleNami's mission is simple: connect the globe's unconnected citizens with identifications, resources, and services essential to survive and thrive by leveraging their proprietary technology and the mass adoption of mobile phones. RippleNami's proprietary technology solution is deployed in developing countries and is enabling the global landscape in unforeseen ways.
As an Athena board member, Connolly-LaBelle shares Athena's singular vision to empower women at this magnitude, leveraging her global reach and San Diego roots. Connolly-LaBelle respects the value of empowering women and children in ways that leave no one behind. By advancing the adoption of RippleNami's technology to solve problems & change lives in unconnected nations and connecting those in need with essential data, Connolly-LaBelle is a strong women's advocate.
Every year, Athena Pinnacle Awards places the national spotlight on the individuals, corporations and institutions that excel in mentoring, promoting and advancing women working in the STEM fields. Connolly-LaBelle's Pinnacle Awards nomination recognizes her extraordinary leadership in helping women through her global vision while celebrating RippleNami's technology solution.
