Liz Elting, CEO and Founder of the Elizabeth Elting Foundation, learned at an early age to rely on no one but herself financially. Liz took this advice to heart, founding and building a billion-dollar business from scratch and becoming one of the richest self-made women. 
From her NYU dorm room, Liz co-founded TransPerfect, the world's largest language solutions company, at the age of 26. Before getting her first clients, Liz made thousands of calls and wrote thousands of letters. Her road to success was filled with long hours and sacrifices. Although Liz had the highest vision for herself and her company, she experienced many learning curves along the way, including the heartbreaking experience of battling her co-founder in court. Liz is a fierce proponent of raising other female entrepreneurs up and amplifying their voices through her work with her foundation. In her best-selling book Dream Big and Win: Translating Passion into Purpose and Creating a Billion-Dollar Business, she vulnerably recounts her business journey and lessons learned.
