Investors

We’re looking for investors (VCs, CVCs, Angels and Family Offices) that acknowledge the discrepancy in venture funding for Black and Brown founders and want to associate themselves with the solution by leaning in.

Join us by spending a day taking pitches from Black and Brown founders of your selection in the hope of finding new investment opportunities.
