Thank you to our CIO Luncheon Gold sponsors CHS Inc., Ecolab and Medtronic! 85% of our organizational budget is raised through earned income and our corporate partners who host interns. However, several integral parts of our programs do not generate revenue resulting in a gap. Funds raised from CIO Luncheon help our multifaceted, multiyear program happen: from skills training, to individualized support, to transformative new experiences. If you haven’t signed up, you can also help support our important work by giving directly. A gift to Genesys Works Twin Cities enables us to train and place more talented youth from underserved communities into meaningful corporate internships.

It's Flashback Friday! This past summer, Genesys Works collaborated with Skillquest to enhance our technology skill development initiatives. Interns engaged in an intensive week of instruction covering the fundamentals of video game programming, culminating in the design and coding of a bot, which led to an exciting friendly competition! https://bit.ly/4h3Hu5o

Thank you to Hunter Muller and HMG Strategy for putting on an excellent event today! Grateful to be with an incredible group of Technology leaders and share a little bit about the impact we're having Genesys Works Twin Cities!
We couldn't host such successful events as our 10th Annual Minneapolis C-Level Technology Leadership Summit without the support of our Association Partners. Genesys Works Twin Cities joined us today for a brief conversation between Allison Barmann and Mark Murphy, EVP and Chief Digital & Information Officer at Genesys Works' supporter 3M. #winningstrategies #cio #ciso #cto #thoughtleadership #hmgciomn #ai #genai #cybersecurity #networking #careerascent #thoughtascent

Over 130 alumni gathered at Can Can Wonderland in St. Paul to celebrate our accomplishments, recognize our community impact, and dream up new ways to further the Genesys Works mission. Here’s a quick look back at the unforgettable night of connection, community, and fun we celebrated at the 2024 Alumni Reunion!
