Ksquare's CEO, Dirgesh Patel, receives the Innovator of the Year Award from INROADS, an educational program inspired by Martin Luther King Jr. at the 2019 Founder's Day Benefit Gala Presented by P&G
WASHINGTON, June 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- On a distinguished evening of networking and celebration, the Founder's Day Benefit Gala recognized those who have carried out the mission of INROADS, the international organization inspired on the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s landmark "I Have a Dream" speech and founded by Frank C. Carr almost 50 years ago.
The INROADS Benefit Gala - held earlier this month at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce with a nearly sold out attendance - awarded Dirgesh Patel, technology business leader, and Ksquare CEO, with the Innovator of the Year Award.
"An innovator is someone who's always looking outside of the box with forward thinking, thought leadership, and at the same time, capable of evolving from a modernization standpoint." Dirgesh Patel, Ksquare CEO
About INROADS, an organization with over 28 offices serving nearly 2,000 interns at over 200 companies, Dirgesh Patel said: "The real thing that INROADS always gave me was counsel and mentorship, something extremely valuable and critical to anybody at any age, but especially when you're a teenager. I was scared because I didn't know what the future was going to hold for me, or even if I was ready. INROADS came and told me: 'Dirgesh, here's a hand to lean on, and we got you.' And they did."
Among the laureates of the evening are Martin Luther King, III, laureate with the Lifetime Achievement Award, Kimberly Bryant, honored as Alumni of the Year, Victor "Alex" Villanueva, received the Rising Star mention, and UnitedHealth Group recognized with the Frank C. Carr Award.
