Our Mission

Our mission is to build a global community where all entrepreneurs and their allies can build meaningful relationships and grow together.

Talent is everywhere. Opportunity is not.

91% of venture backed startup founders have male founders. In fact, the typical founding team is all male, all white, university educated, and residing in Silicon Valley.
11 Million+ aspiring underrepresented entrepreneurs say they want to start businesses but lack the role-models and know-how. Meanwhile, 10 Million+ business professionals want skills-based volunteering opportunities.

Our Solution

Entrepreneurs with more social support are 5X more likely to launch, grow, and stay in business.

We connect volunteer business professionals with underrepresented entrepreneurs for virtual, one-on-one mentorship.

Entrepreneurs also get access to free, members-only events, business templates, and funding opportunities.

 

Who we serve

Nearly 40,000 underrepresented entrepreneurs have requested help for businesses in all industries, including fashion, food, beauty, health and wellness, consulting, and more!

Our Community

70% identify as women
60% identify as Black
90% report low income
80% identify as people of color

We also serve young entrepreneurs who are formerly incarcerated, formerly in foster care, immigrants, veterans, LGBTQ+, and other groups statistically underrepresented in entrepreneurship.
