Equilar Diversity Network Members Join New Public Company Boards

March 8, 2018

As part of an ongoing effort to promote diversity in America’s boardrooms, Equilar launched the Equilar Diversity Network (EDN) in 2016. A feature of the Equilar BoardEdge database, EDN is a consortium of leading diversity-focused organizations consolidating robust registries of board-ready executives.

In recognition of International Women’s Day, celebrated on March 8, 2018, Equilar would like to highlight and congratulate the 35 women EDN members who joined a new public board in the second half of 2017.
