If you’ve been following FOUNT, you already know our employees are full of moxie. Earlier this year, we were fortunate to be named a 2023 Moxie Award Finalist. We are listed alongside an impressive list of organizations including Clutch, Montgomery County Green Bank, AttainX, The Motley Fool Foundation, and many more.

The Moxie Award program celebrates boldness in business by honoring the accomplishments and achievements of growing businesses, nonprofits and associations in the DC metro community. Earlier this year, Co-founder and CEO, Christophe Martel, met with the finalist committee including TJ Wilkinson, Ian Joseph, and Ron Kosmahl. They summarized:

FOUNT is on a mission to tackle this challenge head-on. It offers innovative SaaS solutions that help companies identify and eliminate workplace friction, making work smoother and more enjoyable. Unmanaged friction costs companies millions annually through attrition, burnout, and wasted productivity.

Applicants were evaluated on innovation, growth, industry leadership, community service and local achievements in a multi-step process:

• Applications were reviewed by the finalist committee
• Finalists will be visited by members of the finalist committee for a 30-60 minute in-person interview.
• The official applications and feedback from the finalist committee interviews will be provided to the judges for evaluation.

FOUNT was named a Moxie Award finalist in the Technology (< 50 employees) category and we’re up against stiff competition! Other companies in our category include Business Engineering, Calypso AI, Enabled Intelligence, SC Solutions, Inc. dba “SpaceChain”, SHIFT, Summit Space Corporation, vTech Solution, Inc. and Walacor Corp.

Judges are part of the Washington, D.C. community and are selected for their business acumen and success in their respective industries. They are looking for companies that are bold, innovative and show Moxie! Obviously, we believe we ooze moxie. After all, what is bolder than trying to make work better for millions of people? Work friction is something every working person has experienced and we’re dedicated to reducing frustration, burnout and stalled productivity.

Winners will be revealed at the Awards Ceremony and Dinner at the Ritz-Carlton Tysons on October 25, 2023. FOUNT’s Chief Experience Officer, Anne Eidelman, and Solutions Analyst, Britnie Smith, are Puttin’ on the Ritz and representing FOUNT at this event. We’re beyond thrilled to be a finalist and a participant. We are also looking forward to meeting the other finalists, judges and sponsors. Please wish us luck! 🤞
