Get to know the BIPOC Entrepreneurship Network!

Small, minority-owned businesses are critical drivers of the American economy. Yet, BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) entrepreneurs consistently experience structural barriers to investment, mentorship, and other resources. Our network prides itself on finding and cultivating leaders who possess clear visions for the future of equity, accessibility, and inclusive design.

The BIPOC Entrepreneurship Network (BEN) is designed to create a safe, inclusive space to discuss leading empathetic and authentic discovery work with the communities and individuals you seek to serve. In addition, this space will allow teams or solopreneurs to engage with other BIPOC innovators and the networks that support them to deepen our collective understanding of barriers BIPOC innovators face along their startup journey. Together, we will co-design desired solutions and identify opportunities to move our work forward.
