Description

Can a business be profitable and still do the right thing by its customers? Accolade CEO Raj Singh believes so.

Singh will share his insights at the Albers Executive Speaker Series on Wednesday, January 22, 5:30 p.m., at the Pigott Auditorium. The event is hosted by the Albers School of Business and Economics and features top leaders and entrepreneurs in the Puget Sound Area who talk about a topic of their choice.

Singh’s chosen topic is ‘Wanted: Contrarians, Disruptors, and Do-gooders’. According to him, ‘Mission based companies are poised to disrupt entrenched incumbents by doing the right thing for consumers and their communities while building a profitable, growing business. This is the new world.’

Singh is one of the Pacific Northwest’s most successful entrepreneurs, from co-founding and co-leading Concur for more than two decades to designing and managing a strategic growth plan for healthcare advocacy company Accolade beginning in early 2016. Last year, he was named EY Entrepreneur of the Year in the Innovator category.

Attendance at the Albers Executive Speaker Series is free and open to the public.
