True, the premiere global platform of innovative talent management products and services, recently announced its acquisition of Jopwell, a hiring platform focused on advancing the careers of Black, Latinx and Native American students and early-to-mid-career professionals.
Jopwell perfectly complements the executive-level recruitment focus of True Search and its sister organization AboveBoard. According to the press statement, this holistic offering solidifies True as the leading technology and services firm for advancing diversity, equity and inclusion in leadership.
Commenting on the acquisition, Co-founder & Co-CEO of True, Brad Stadler, said:
Jopwell and True share three significant goals–to empower underrepresented talent in the workforce, to help companies meet their goals for diversifying leadership, and to bring the most innovative talent solutions to market. We couldn’t be more excited about the impact we can make together, especially under Jopwell’s continued leadership of co-founders Ryan Williams and Porter Braswell.
The startup helps companies fulfil their diversity and inclusion goals with business units AboveBoard (an inclusive executive platform and community) and Jopwell (the first and leading diversity tech platform for early-mid career professionals). It also backs promising companies through its investment firms, True Equity and Vera Equity.
Co-founded by Brad Stadler and Joe Riggione, True aims to evolve the talent management industry by creating tools and services that increase transparency and efficiency within the global talent market—adding value to the worldwide talent pool, its clients, and everyone who provides talent-related services. The platform consists of a collection of brands, including True Search (retained executive search), TrueBridge (advisory, interim and fractional executive placement), Thrive (Talent CRM software), and Synthesis (leadership assessment and development tools).
Co-founder & CEO of Jopwell, Ryan Williams, commented:
This partnership with True’s global reach and resources expands the value we deliver to our partners and community members. We’re aligned from our technology roots to our shared visions for disrupting the talent industry for the better of all people.
