With #PrideMonth upon us, we are pleased to highlight an upcoming virtual event to introduce Semiconductor PRIDE. Rodrigo Mendez, HR Generalist and valued member of the WGNSTAR team, will be participating in a cross-company panel of LGBTQ+ ERG leaders to discuss the formation of this important initiative. Together with Intel, the SEMI Foundation will host the hour-long webinar where panelists will share their vision for what is unique about the initiative, what they hope to accomplish, how they hope to accomplish it, and how semiconductor workers can get involved. Rodrigo will represent WGNSTAR and share his own experiences as part of the LGBTQ+ community, highlighting the significance of creating a more inclusive working environment for everyone. By championing inclusivity, we can drive positive change and ensure that every individual feels valued and empowered. WGNSTAR is honored to be a part of this project and committed to a workplace where everyone feels welcome. Join us to support Rodrigo and all of the panelists as we learn more about this incredible initiative. Together, let's make the semiconductor industry a place where everyone feels respected and included. #SemiconductorPRIDE #Inclusion #DEI Event Date: June 13th Event Registration: https://bit.ly/4cadVMi
