NerdWallet is on a mission to help provide clarity for consumers and SMBs so they can make financial decisions with confidence. We work hard to cultivate an award-winning culture in which our Nerds can realize this mission, and we pride ourselves on the programs we’ve created to positively impact the lives of our consumers, our Nerds, and our wider world. NerdWallet invests in its people, fostering an equitable and inclusive workplace in which Nerds can thrive professionally and personally. This includes a remote-first philosophy that allows for diverse recruitment and hiring, development programs to facilitate career growth, and a twice-yearly pay equity review process. NerdWallet also has five employee resource groups (ERGs) to provide inclusive, supportive peer communities within the workplace: NerdOut, NerdParents, NerdWomen, NerdWallet Women in Data & Engineering and Nerds of Color. NerdWallet invests in its larger communities through our Corporate Social Responsibility program that was created to support those traditionally locked out of the financial system. Millions of Americans are unbanked or underbanked, lacking access to credit and other financial products that some of us take for granted. Through our CSR platform, we’re striving to make a tangible difference for these underserved communities. NerdWallet’s award-winning culture was named an Inc. Best Workplace in 2022 and has also been recognized by Fast Company, Fortune, People, and more. Come Nerd out with us at www.nerdwallet.com.

The Smart Electric Power Alliance (SEPA) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit accelerating the transition to a clean, affordable, and resilient energy system for all. With more than 1,000 member organizations—including utilities, technology companies, regulators, and policymakers—SEPA works at the intersection of technology, policy, and programs to address the energy sector’s most pressing challenges. Through education, collaboration, and convening, we help industry leaders implement innovative, real-world solutions that deliver reliable and affordable power to customers across the country. Since 1992, SEPA has supported the integration of electrification, grid modernization, and regulatory and business innovation—empowering stakeholders to meet rising energy demand and drive meaningful progress. Our work is guided by three strategic priorities: Grid – The grid is the backbone of the energy transition. Modernizing it with advanced technologies and customer-centric programs is critical to ensuring resilience and meeting evolving needs. Growth – From surging electricity demand to the rise of EVs and electrified homes, SEPA supports stakeholders in managing growth reliably, sustainably, and affordably. Globe – We connect members to proven domestic and international innovations, providing scalable solutions that accelerate impact. SEPA is the proud co-founder and co-host of RE+, the largest clean energy event in North America. Together with the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA), SEPA has helped shape RE+ into a one-of-a-kind convening that brings together every corner of the modern energy industry, covering sectors such as solar, energy storage, grid-edge technologies, hydrogen, and EV charging infrastructure. SEPA is also home to Public Utilities Fortnightly (PUF), a trusted platform for utility, regulatory, and energy industry leaders. For more information, visit www.sepapower.org.
