Our First Series: Dope Diverse Founders
With intentional efforts to reverse the progress made in the last 10 years in the tech startup space relative to diversity, equity, and inclusion, we’ve made a decision to shine a light on founders from backgrounds underrepresented in tech (Black, Latinx, Women, LGBTQ+, etc.). Those selected will be featured on social media, email, etc., get access to business perks, and sent exclusive opportunities with enterprise customers, investors, etc. when they arise.
Bonus Points for startups that use AI as part of their core technology and those in the following industries: Fintech/Banking, Financial Inclusion, Cybersecurity, Digital Health, Identity Verification, SMB Support, Automation, and similar spaces.
For example, startups that provide lending for small business, enable early wage assets, embedded finance, prepaid debit cards for other companies, as well as startups that do AI automation for marketing, HR, customer service, or logistics.
