Reflecting on 2023: A Year of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Expansion and Community Impact

As we prepare to step into a new year, it is important to reflect on the strides we have made, and on the milestones achieved in 2023. This past year was a testament to our commitment to growth and innovation, and to creating a more inclusive environment within our organization.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI)

Diversity, equity, and inclusion remained at the core of our organizational ethos. Building upon our established DEI efforts, 2023 saw substantial progress and formalization of our commitment. Our DEI Taskforce evolved into a standing committee, solidifying our long-term dedication to this initiative.

Throughout the year, we worked to raise awareness and provide educational opportunities, aligning our efforts throughout the year with nationally recognized month-long celebrations that help promote DEI. At BLUEPRINT 4D, our expanded DEI programming empowered attendees to learn from industry leaders and gain actionable insights.

The launch of Quest’s DEI Content Center streamlined access to valuable resources, furthering our mission to facilitate learning and understanding. Visit our DEI Content Center for a comprehensive look at our DEI programming.

Quest for Good: Impacting Communities

Strengthening partnerships at the intersection of technology and DEI, we remained unwavering in our commitment to positively impact the communities in which we operate. Our collaborations with local organizations such as St. Philip’s School and Community Center, and the DFW Alliance of Technology Women, as well as with various Dallas-based DEI experts, exemplified our dedication to community betterment and culminated in significant contributions to vetted charitable organizations in and around the DFW area.

Looking Ahead: 2024 and Beyond

Our achievements of 2023 serve as a foundation for our future endeavors. As we move into 2024, our resolve to further progress programs, deepen partnerships, and foster an inclusive environment remains strong.

We are proud of the progress made, but our journey toward a more inclusive, innovative, and community-centric future continues. Join us as we build upon these efforts, striving to create a brighter, more impactful tomorrow together.

Thank you for being part of this transformative year. Here is to a new year filled with promise, growth, and shared achievements. Wishing you all a joyous holiday season and a prosperous new year ahead.

Warm Regards,
Jesse Carrillo
