Many thanks to Alba E. Martínez, Esq., Director of Commerce for the City of Philadelphia, for hosting a Lunch and Learn at Athena timed with Hispanic Heritage Month. Here are some highlights from her talk: Building Your Community: Alba shared her personal journey of moving from Puerto Rico to Philadelphia, arriving without knowing anyone, and how she created a sense of belonging by connecting with the Latino community. Her story is a testament to resilience and the importance of finding—and creating—spaces where you feel you belong. Following Your Passion: Alba’s career demonstrates her dedication to mission-driven organizations. From her early work at Community Legal Services to her leadership roles as CEO of Congreso de Latinos Unidos, Commissioner of Human Services, CEO of United Way of Southeastern Pennsylvania, and senior roles at Vanguard, her path reflects a deep commitment to public service and community impact. Her story shows how personal growth and giving back can go hand-in-hand. The Appeal of Philadelphia and Future Growth: As Commerce Director, Alba focuses on fostering inclusive economic growth by streamlining the business experience and revitalizing commercial corridors. She highlighted Philadelphia’s key advantages for businesses, including world-class infrastructure, lower operating costs, and a strong sense of community.

Our annual All Staff meeting was an A+. We loved leaning into our Yearbook theme at the Bok Building, and showed our true school spirit in every event. We celebrated the wins of the year, played games, listened to panels, doled out superlatives, and then partied the night away at Irwin's. Thank you, Sabina louise Pierce, for helping us look perfect for picture day. 📷✨

We’re celebrating the vibrant culture, history, and contributions of the Hispanic and Latinx community this Hispanic Heritage Month! Check out how our corporate partner, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, is honoring this month through their exhibits and special events:
Happy Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month! This year we want to communicate stories across cultures and shed a special light on the diversity within Hispanic and Latinx communities. To help us celebrate, we’ve collaborated with Cindy Lozito, an illustrator, muralist, and cartoonist based in South Philadelphia. Her collaboration with the museum, entitled "The Fabric of Belonging," explores Puerto Rican identity through family keepsakes, kitsch, and community archives. See what’s happening all month long: https://bit.ly/4epkJqx ____________________________________________________________________ ¡Feliz Mes de la Herencia Hispana y Latina! Este año, queremos comunicar historias de diversas culturas y ofrecer un enfoque especial sobre la diversidad de las comunidades hispanas y latinas. Para celebrarlo, hemos trabajado en colaboración con Cindy Lozito, una ilustradora, muralista y dibujante que reside en el sur de Filadelfia. Su contribución con el museo, que se titula “El tejido de la pertenencia”, explora la identidad puertorriqueña mediante recuerdos familiares, el kitsch y archivos comunitarios. ¡Haga clic en el enlace de nuestra biografía para conocer las actividades de todo el mes!

The conversation around "AI in the workplace" is often filled with two extremes: speculation on what AI in business means for us as a society or overviews of specific use cases without added context on how this comes to life. Researching this space - from AI readiness checklists to product testimonials - fails to answer the question; what does it really look like for a company to successfully adopt AI? At Athena, we've been on this journey, and we're sharing the practical steps we've taken to become power users of AI technology.

We marked the unofficial end to Summer 2024 with our first-ever Athena Field Day at FDR Park! Healthy competition included an egg toss, Family Feud, hula hooping, and more. While the Blue Team defeated the Orange Team in the end, it was the perfect way to get outdoors for an afternoon. We already can’t wait for next year!
