  • ExecAtlas: A powerful executive and relationship intelligence platform that maps critical network connections, helping organizations build stronger pipelines, accelerate deals and connect with key decision-makers.

Looking Ahead to New Horizons

Equilar’s 25th anniversary is not just a celebration of its legacy but a stepping stone into the future. As the leader in executive intelligence, Equilar is expanding its offerings into new use cases and markets. The Company remains committed to helping clients unlock critical insights, foster meaningful connections and drive success across industries.

“Reaching 25 years is a tremendous milestone, and it’s only been possible thanks to the trust and partnership of our clients,” said David Chun, Founder & CEO of Equilar. “While we honor our history, we’re energized by what lies ahead. Our mission remains clear: to continue delivering innovative solutions that empower organizations to thrive.”

As Equilar celebrates 25 years, industry veterans reflect on the Company's lasting impact on their own professional journeys.

“As one of Equilar’s first advisory board members, I’ve seen firsthand how the Company has supported CHROs, like myself, and HR leaders with data-driven insights, innovative tools and creative solutions to challenges,” said Harriet Harty, former Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer at ADT and Board Member. “For 25 years, Equilar has been a trusted partner, helping navigate critical executive compensation and governance issues that myself and my team have benefited. Congratulations Equilar on your 25th anniversary!”

Suzan Morno-Wade, former Chief Human Resources Officer at Xerox and Board Member at Latham Group, also shares her experiences. “Equilar has been a trusted resource throughout my human resources career,” said Morno-Wade. “The Company’s data, insights and solutions have enabled me to make informed decisions to shape effective human capital strategies. Today’s HR leaders don’t have the luxury of seeking intelligence in different places. Equilar fills an important gap. Congratulations to David Chun and team on 25 years of excellence.”
