Crain’s Detroit Business Awards E7 as Top 100 Cool Places to Work

On Friday, August 20th, E7 was awarded as one of Crain’s Detroit Business’s 100 Cool Places to Work in Michigan. We are absolutely thrilled and honored that we received this award! We are extremely proud to be recognized and thankful for our team that makes it such a great place to work.

Though we’ve always had core values, E7 as an organization got really clear about our Core Values in late 2020. Not only does it give insight to our culture, but they also provide a framework for our decision making process. They show up in interactions with one another, with our partners, and with our clients. Having a clear language really helps determine the right actions and attracts the best kind of people. I think this played a huge part in winning this award in 2021.

Back-to-Back Two Times Baby!

In April, Atlassian announced E7 Solutions as Atlassian Partner of the Year: Cloud Services in 2020. This followed our recognition from Atlassian as 2019 Partner of the Year: Cloud, so we thought a “back-to-back” throwback image with inspiration from the Detroit Pistons ‘89/’90 Championships was a great way to celebrate our accomplishments and recognize our team for all of their hard work and dedication.

Needless to say, when we found out just months later we were one of Crain’s Top 100 Cool Places to Work in Michigan for the second year in a row, we were thrilled! That is 2 back-to-back awards in just 1 year. (My team is amazing.)

I really want to thank everyone at E7 for building and living a positive, creative, and collaborative environment. Additionally, thank you to Crain’s Detroit Business for honoring us with this award. We are very appreciative to be recognized as a Top 100 Cool Places to Work for 2021!

Good news is we are always growing! We are always actively looking to expand our team. We currently have open positions – click below to check them out!

E7 Solutions Congratulates Winner of 2022 Scholarship

As the organization continues to analyze and strategize its growth process, E7 Solutions wanted to take an external step forward and find a way to give to the community. Taking into consideration the significance and impact of education and technology on today’s advancements, E7 pursued the idea of launching a scholarship program to fund $7,000 toward a qualified high school or undergraduate student’s tuition in early 2022. After several months of building criteria and reviewing applications, E7 is proud to announce Enzo Mignano as the winner of the first 2022 E7 Scholarship.

“Sometimes realizing our goals can be achieved through our determination and willpower. Sometimes it takes more,” said Edmond Delude, CEO. “I wanted to provide the ‘more’ for those with financial obstacles but desire to build a better version of themselves and the world around them.”

The application challenged students to explain how education can help them in their personal lives and in their careers. They were also asked to describe how technology plays a critical role in the advancements of today. Delivered in Enzo’s essay responses were a passion for applying technology to the real world and a dedication to education.

“I am deeply honored by E7’s support,” said Enzo Mignano, E7 Scholarship winner, student of University of Michigan – Ann Arbor. “This scholarship will greatly help me in paying for my college expenses and allow me to concentrate on my studies.”

Congratulations, Enzo!

Here is how you can participate:

  1. Join E7’s Lift All Higher team! (Not just for E7 employees. Can be you, your family members, and friends.) Once you join, simply log miles manually or connect your Strava account to make things easy.

E7 will be making a donation on October 15 based on the miles our team stacks up! Looking forward to crossing the finish line together.

Building Together: E7 Solutions’ Commitment to Community

On May 18, 2024, E7 Solutions was honored to participate in Habitat for Humanity’s “Women Build” in Ypsilanti, Michigan. Since 1991, Habitat’s Women Build volunteers have come together to build stronger, safer communities. A central goal of the program is to empower women to help families build strength, stability and independence. The volunteer days provide opportunities for hands-on learning, power tools included! With a robust team of 12 volunteers, all employees and friends of E7, the group made real progress in the build process, and E7’s sponsorship helped the program towards its $75,000 seasonal fundraising goal. E7 staff who attended the event were Alisz Hatch, Adrianne White, Misty Ontiveros and Ana Galofre Smith. It was a beautiful, warm day in southeast Michigan, and some folks traveled as far as an hour away to participate in the nearly 8-hour Saturday workday with their colleagues.

“This is E7’s second year participating in Habitat’s Women Build and it is one of my favorite days of the year. It’s such a great way to learn new skills, problem-solve, bond with my fellow teammates away from work, and give back to this wonderful community. This year we installed windows and I had absolutely no idea what went into that before last week. It is a complex, physical process and our team was able to install 10 start to finish in walls that were solid when we arrived! I’m grateful that Edmond, our CEO, continues to support and sponsor these build days and we are already looking forward to our next build day.”

– Ana Galofre Smith, Principal Consultant for E7 and a Habitat Women Build team lead.

The Impact of Volunteering on the Community and Company Culture

Volunteering has a profound impact on both the community and company culture. When companies like E7 Solutions actively participate in community initiatives, they create a positive ripple effect. Moreover, volunteering strengthens company culture by fostering a sense of unity, shared values, and a commitment to making a difference. This volunteer opportunity truly reflects many of E7’s core values, which are not simply verbiage posted on the wall but are genuinely central to E7’s company culture.

A Glimpse into the Women’s Build Event

Building homes. Securing futures. Strengthening communities. Women Build opportunities are available across the U.S., and any woman or person who wants to learn how to build or repair a home is invited to join. The Women Build event organized by Habitat for Humanity provides a unique volunteering experience, allowing women to come together and lend a helping hand to families in need. Volunteers engage in various construction tasks, such as framing, painting, and landscaping, to create safe and affordable housing for families in need. No prior building experience is required! The Women Build event fosters a sense of camaraderie and empowerment among the volunteers, as they work together to build a better future for local families.

“We are honored to have E7 Solutions join us for Women Build in support of women empowering women. Their support helps us take a proactive step in providing affordable housing, especially for women of low- to mid-income in our community. Their volunteer support helps keep our program expenses low, while their funding support helps keep our program affordable for families who need it most. We are so grateful for the support of E7 Solutions!”

– Leah Tessman, Director of Grants, Corporate & Faith Giving, Habitat for Humanity Huron Valley
