“Courtland is a strong believer in creating an open environment where her team is encouraged to challenge one another with the goal of collectively achieving success” said Brightspeed CEO Tom Maguire. “Under her leadership, the team launched a new brand and a unique brand character to help drive awareness of our name, services and what made us different – generating nearly 40% sales growth quarter over quarter. I’m proud to see her recognized as a 2025 Chicago Titan 100.”
“Chicago’s Titan 100 are redefining business with vision and purpose, setting new standards for growth, innovation, and impact.
