Main content

CEO Allison Robinson is disrupting the workplace for moms so they don’t have to choose between family and career. Disturbed by statistics around women leaving the workplace upon starting a family, Robinson in 2016 founded The Mom Project, a digital talent platform that connects professionally accomplished women with world-class companies. To date, The Mom Project has connected more than 500,000 moms, dads and allies with opportunities at 3,000-plus companies - including Apple, Accenture, Etsy and Nike. Additionally, Robinson founded Rise, a nonprofit scholarship program focused on accelerating equity for moms and women of color by providing access to upskill tech certifications.
