Kristina Liburd has been appointed as Vice Chair USA at Raizup USA

The viageur CEO, attorney and Founder of the  Black Startup Collective, Kristina Liburd has been appointed Vice Chair USA at Raizup earlier this month. She aims to aid others in opening its eyes beyond the confines of their immediate space and seeing and understanding others from different cultures and backgrounds.
The US leadership team cannot wait to provide the space for members to discuss and develop the ongoing rebuilding of the travel and hospitality industry and how we can better ourselves for the future.
The local team starts two months after the launch of the new Raizup platform (formerly WHTT) with the mission to increase the success and engagement in the workplace for women and other underrepresented groups, and to enable organisations to attract, develop and retain potential diverse talent, nurtured by a powerful community.
Local leaders are Tiffany Gupta, Bianca Porto Barga, Stefania Picheca, and Andrea Aguilar.
The fantastic U.S.-based team supports individual members as well as companies, non-profit organisations, associations, educational institutions and networks in exploring personal and professional development in the travel ecosystem locally.
Raizup now welcomes individual members as well as organisations, non-profits, associations, community initiatives and networks on weraizup.com
I rise up. You rise up. #weraizup
