Alda is delighted to announce that our Co-founder and Chief Technology Officer, Sigyn Jónsdóttir, was recently featured in Forbes, highlighting her pioneering work in designing innovative Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) solutions. 

In the interview, Sigyn discusses the inception of Alda, which she co-founded with CEO Thorey V. Proppé. They identified a critical need for data-driven tools to effectively implement DEI initiatives within organisations. This led to the creation of Alda's Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform, designed to transform workplace cultures by making DEI measurable and actionable.

Alda's platform integrates seamlessly with existing human resource systems through API integration. It conducts comprehensive employee surveys to assess organisational culture and offers engaging, mobile-friendly micro-learning courses on various DEI topics. Since its launch in 2022, Alda has raised €2.2 million in funding and secured clients such as Deloitte and Icelandair, reflecting the platform's growing impact across diverse industries.

Users of Alda's platform benefit from a comprehensive dashboard that allows them to set goals, track key performance indicators, access micro-learning modules, and receive AI-curated action plans. This holistic approach equips organisations with the tools necessary to foster inclusive environments where all employees can thrive.

Sigyn's expertise in programming, data analytics, and operations research has been instrumental in developing Alda's robust technological infrastructure. Her leadership ensures that the platform not only meets the current needs of organisations but also adapts to the evolving landscape of DEI practices.

At Alda, we are committed to partnering with organisations to yield the best outcomes in their DEI efforts. By providing measurable and intentional tools, we aim to dismantle toxic work environments and replace them with spaces where everyone, regardless of their background, can thrive.
