Tracey Grace

Woman of grit

Founder and CEO of IBEX IT Business Experts since 2012, and the 2024 HHS OSDBU Woman-Owned Small Business of the Year.

At IBEX, Tracey helps organizations like NASA, the CDC, and Cox Communications implement IT solutions and train workers on innovative technologies.

Originally from New Jersey, Tracey attended the University of Pittsburgh, where she earned a BA in Economics and Spanish and was awarded a Graduate Tuition Fellowship to fully fund her MBA in Marketing, which she completed in eleven months. Before breaking into the technology industry by founding IBEX IT Business Experts in 2012, she led sales teams at Learning Tree and FedEx.

As a woman founder, Tracey knows that IBEX brings value beyond technology training. The company also serves a real need in connecting organizations with strategic partners and expanding access to opportunity. Her expertise is in IT solutions, government contracting, and best practices, and she is a sought-after authority on networking, leadership, and business growth.

In 2022, IBEX launched Nectar iQ, a supplier management platform. It helps clients including the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center increase supplier engagement through a smarter way to communicate, collaborate, and build business relationships.

Tracey serves on several nonprofit boards, including North Fulton Community Charities and the Greater North Fulton Chamber of Commerce, supporting businesses throughout the state.
