New leaders helm Women in Wireless as growth agenda is set
New leadership takes charge of Women in Wireless, a
10,000-member nonprofit organization that seeks to empower and develop women
leaders in mobile and digital media.
Aurelie Guerrieri, founder/CEO of boutique online and mobile
consultancy Akila One, and Emily McInerney, director of marketing at mobile
app-tech and monetization specialist Tapjoy, have been elected co-presidents of
Women in Wireless. They succeed Diana Epstein, senior account executive at
cross-device targeting and attribution specialist Drawbridge, and Kristine van
Dillen Newman, vice president for global accounts at mobile marketing firm
Soli.
“We are taking the reins at a crucial time for Women in
Wireless,” Ms. Guerrieri said. “The organization has grown extraordinarily
rapidly from a seed to a real structure that is now ready to deepen and expand
its impact on women in the mobile and digital space worldwide.”
Spurring growth seems to be the dominant theme for the new
leaders.
“Three years ago, Women in Wireless was a 500-member
upstart,” Ms. McInerney said. “Today, we have 10,000 members and nine active
chapters in the U.S. and abroad. I feel really proud to have contributed to
such an amazing expansion.
“This year, under Kristine Newman's and Diana Epstein's
leadership, we have also achieved financial stability, and have rolled out many
processed and toolkits that will serve as foundation as we further scale,” she
said.
