FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ARLINGTON, VA, October 29, 2023 — INTELLECTUAL & CO., the consulting firm where innovation meets impact, proudly announces its new status as a signatory of the United Nations Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs). This significant step forwards reflects the company’s unwavering commitment to fostering gender equality and empowering women in the workplace, marketplace, and community.

Daniel G. Rego, Founder and Partner of Intellectual & Co., expressed his dedication to the principles: “This is a natural stride aligning perfectly with our core values, allowing us to be part of a transformative global network pushing the boundaries towards gender equality and women’s empowerment. It’s an honor to be woven into this impactful tapestry that champions comprehensive business practices ranging from advocating for equal pay to fostering gender-responsive supply chain practices and nurturing a zero-tolerance environment against sexual harassment. Our pledge is a reflection of our unwavering dedication to stimulating a corporate culture where inclusivity thrives and every woman has a powerful voice in shaping the realms of workplace, marketplace, and community. By integrating the WEPs into the architectural fabric of our strategic innovations, we aim to be a conduit of positive change, steering collaborative multi-stakeholder networks that magnify women’s roles as influential contributors in business and society.”

The Women’s Empowerment Principles, established by UN Women and UN Global Compact, are a set of guidelines that help businesses promote gender equality and women’s empowerment. These principles are informed by international labor and human rights standards and are integral to achieving the 2030 agenda and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

This includes advocating for equal pay, fostering gender-responsive supply chain practices, and ensuring a zero-tolerance policy against sexual harassment in the workplace.
