Efforts to create supportive, inclusive environments for underrepresented entrepreneurs are under attack nationwide.
Thanks to the forward-thinking leadership of the Fearless Fund, programs like DivInc and others still have legal leeway to directly fund minority groups. But the fight is far from over.
DivInc is excited to be back at AfroTech with Black Girl Ventures for a revisit of last year’s panel: And Still We Rise. Join us for a timely discussion with our partners on how we will continue to fight for our right to correct the wrongs of history.
