The Women Presidents’ Organization (WPO) describes itself as
a nonprofit membership organization for women presidents of multi million
dollar privately held companies. Members include presidents, CEOs, and managing
directors of businesses around the world. The WPO’s main goal is to further the
advancement and acceptance of women entrepreneurs across all industries.
Renogy’s CEO and founder, Dr. Yi Li, is a member of this exclusive
organization. On May 5th, 2017, the WPO in partnership with American
Express released the 10th annual list of the 50 Fastest Growing
Women-Owned/Led Companies. This year, Renogy placed 25th out of 50
on the Fastest Growing list, a first for our company.
On May 5th, all 50 award recipients were honored
at a ceremony in Orlando, Florida. The average age of award recipients was 50
and an amazing 98% of the companies provide health insurance to their
employees. Each of the businesses are unique, and none provide exactly the same
products or services. Of the first three award recipients, one was a fitness
company, while the other two businesses provide IT services. Honorees came from
around the world to attend this event and Dr. Li flew in from Ontario, CA,
where Renogy is headquartered. Overall, it was an honor to attend this event.
