Angela Gennari knows what it means to build something powerful from almost nothing. As a single mom in a male-dominated security industry, she launched Titan Global Enterprises Inc. with just $1,000 and grew it into a multi-million-dollar firm trusted by venues, events, and organizations to keep people safe while elevating the guest experience.
Today, Angela is a keynote speaker, CEO, investor, and podcast host who equips audiences with practical tools to:
- Lead confidently through risk, change, and pressure
- Grow with courage instead of fear
- Build cultures where people feel safe, empowered, and ready to perform
Her talks are not theory. They’re built from real decisions: making payroll when cash is tight, managing risk for large crowds, hiring and firing, turning chaos into systems, and building a company as a single mom in an industry where almost no one looked like her.
Whether she’s speaking to executives, entrepreneurs, venue operators, frontline leaders, or women in business, Angela brings a rare mix of straight talk, strategy, and heart. Audiences walk away with new perspective and concrete next steps they can implement immediately.
As Founder & CEO of Titan Global Enterprises Inc., Angela leads a team providing security, event staffing, and risk management across multiple markets. TITAN is known for its “Lead with Hospitality” philosophy—proving you can protect people, support operations, and still create a warm, welcoming experience.
Under her leadership, TITAN has:
- Grown from a $1,000 bootstrap startup into a multi-million-dollar company
- Expanded into multiple states serving venues, municipalities, and special events
- Earned repeat recognition as one of the fastest-growing companies in Atlanta
- Been named to the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies in America
Beyond TITAN, Angela founded Xquity LLC, a funding and education platform for women-owned businesses. Xquity focuses on helping women move from “getting paid” to owning equity, by combining early-stage funding, strategic guidance, and community.
As host of the Pretty Powerful Podcast, Angela spotlights high-impact founders, executives, and creators and pulls out real, actionable lessons on leadership, resilience, money, and mindset. Together, TITAN, Xquity, and Pretty Powerful form the backbone of Angela’s mission: to help people claim their power, protect what matters, and build lasting wealth and impact.
Angela’s work and leadership have earned national recognition and industry respect, including:
- Inc. Female Founders 250 Honoree – Named one of the influential female founders making a significant impact
- Inc. 5000 – Titan Global Enterprises ranked among America’s fastest-growing private companies

Angela also holds a degree in Psychology from the University of Maryland, is a certified security trainer, and maintains security licenses in multiple states, grounding her thought leadership in both human behavior and operational reality.
Meeting planners appreciate Angela because she:
- Customizes her message to your industry, audience level, and outcomes

- Speaks with candor about risk, debt, failure, and resilience—without sugar-coating

Your audience will leave with:
