Welcome to Little Rock!
MAY 4 - 8:30AM
Join Fourth Economy's Sally Guzik during Breakouts III as she moderates a panel on Recruiting and Supporting Diverse Entrepreneurs.
Research shows that diversity inherently drives innovation. Yet in 2022, Black, Latino, and women entrepreneurs are still not participating at optimal levels in the innovation space. How can we change this dynamic and achieve greater equity and inclusion in our organizations, our portfolios and the broader innovation community? In this panel discussion, you will learn actionable steps to improve your organization’s social impact from a select group of organizations that are successfully working to attract and support underrepresented startup founders.
Panelists:
-
Carly Hill, Director of Development, Propeller
-
Emma Willis, COO, Venture Noire
