Washington D.C., March 12, 2018 — LifeCents, a financial wellness company, is proud to announce its inclusion in MindShare, an exclusive organization designed especially for CEOs of the most promising high-tech companies in the Washington, DC metropolitan area.

“I am grateful for the opportunity to connect with, and learn from, some of the most talented entrepreneurs in the DC area,” said Blake Allison, CEO of LifeCents. “The Mindshare network empowers the cohort to think bigger and bolder, and I am prepared to get to work.”

Founded in 1997 with the mission to help CEOs build long-term, sustainable companies, Mindshare connects select, handpicked CEOs from some of the area’s hottest emerging companies, ultimately creating growth opportunities, and fostering collaboration in a collegial environment.

“We are delighted to welcome LifeCents CEO, Blake Allison, to this year’s class,” said Steve Balistreri, Managing Director at Deloitte and executive committee board member. “Each year, our Mindshare participants hail from some of the most innovative organizations in the DMV and this year’s class is certainly representative of the momentum and diversity we see in technology companies across this region.”

Mindshare received more than 160 nominations for 2019, with 58 of those accepted into the final cohort.

The newest MindShare members will complete a series of classes, taught by notable speakers, on building a business as a CEO. At the conclusion of the program, members with significant attendance and participation will graduate and join a powerful alumni network of more than 1,000 CEOs.

2019 members attended a special welcome event on March 11th at the Capital One Arena, hosted by Ted Leonsis and the MindShare Board.
