We are very excited and honored to welcome Cargill as the host sponsor of our Engineering Conference. We resonate deeply with their statement, ‘At Cargill, everyone matters and everyone counts.’  We believe mutual respect across differences is at the heart of increased productivity for every type of organization. Since 2004, O4U has invited a diverse class of the highest-achieving LGBTQ students from the top 30 US universities to attend our four industry-focused conferences sponsored by more than 130 of America’s leading corporations and universities.

These firms send leaders to educate and mentor students about job opportunities in their highly competitive industries.  Sponsors get to meet, interview and recruit the best and brightest LGBTQ and otherwise diverse students in the nation. Students tell us that these weekend immersions change their lives, inspiring them to live authentically, bringing their full and best selves to the workplace and pursuing challenging, ambitious and purposeful careers.”

We enthusiastically welcome these highly accomplished young LGBTQ students to Cargill.”
