🇺🇸 Hear from General Daniel Hokanson, Chief of the National Guard Bureau, and Jessica Chang, CEO of Upwards, as they launch a groundbreaking pilot program for Army National Guard families at the Pentagon. National Guard families are part of the backbone of our nation's defense and wear many hats. They balance civilian careers and family life alongside the demands of military service. National Guard soldiers live in nearly every zip code across the county but are rarely near a base with built-in childcare support. Securing reliable quality childcare for drill weekends and annual trainings can be especially challenging, particularly for dual-serving families or single parents. Upwards is committed to supporting our nation's heroes and their families. This new pilot program will provide Army National Guard soldiers in 20 states with access to covered, quality, reliable childcare when they need it the most. States included in the program: Arkansas, Colorado, Georgia, Idaho, Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Ohio, Oregon, Virginia, Vermont, Washington, and Wisconsin. Watch the ceremony below and learn how Upwards is making a difference: https://lnkd.in/giXccZub #UpwardsServesHeroes #USArmyNationalGuard #ArmyFamilies #MilitaryFamilies

With very sophisticated internal technology.” We couldn’t agree more!

Excited to announce what we’re building at Heliux - an all-in-one, AI-powered enterprise operating system for engineering and manufacturing companies. Our platform integrates cross-functional operations and data by REPLACING legacy PDM/PLM, ERP, and MES systems, and automates the manual tasks/workflows that routinely add major drag to processes. We’ve assembled a world-class technical team (and we’re continuing to hire!). We’ve partnered with excellent investors from New Stack Ventures, Amplify.LA, Crosscut Ventures, Lux Capital, Countdown Capital, and strategic angels. And MOST importantly, we’re rapidly developing our products to best serve customers. Please reach out if you're interested to learn more! 🚀
