NEW YORK, July 5, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- TheStreet,
Inc. (NASDAQ: TST), a leading financial news and information
provider, today announced the launch of its newest video
series, Alpha
Rising. Special correspondent and seasoned anchor,
Tracy Byrnes, hosts the series with
a mission to celebrate women business leaders who are changing the
landscape of Corporate America.
In her exclusive interviews, Byrnes sits down with women who are
leaders of their industries to celebrate their successes and
discuss their biggest challenges. Viewers will meet women at all
stages of their careers, from Ford's Victoria Schein, who at the age of 23 holds 15+
patents for the company, to Carly
Fiorina, who talks about her experience running for
President and her biggest regret.
"Alpha Rising is so important right now,"
said host Tracy Byrnes. "Women
are underrepresented in C-suites and in boardrooms — and yet
they're out there doing amazing things. We just want to
tell their stories and help push women forward and let them rise
up. And as a long-time single working mom, this is a passionate
project for me."
Alpha Rising
launches today and will feature a new interview every day this
week, followed by weekly segments. The series will include
interviews from business leaders such as:
- Jennifer Fleiss, Rent the Runway
co-founder
- Katia Beauchamp, Birchbox
co-founder and CEO
- Carly Fiorina, former
Hewlett-Packard CEO and presidential candidate
- Vanessa Ogle, CEO, Enseo
