Subject: Actualizing the “American dream” for entrepreneurs of color.

Date: September 16, 2023

It’s a fact: Entrepreneurs of color, particularly Black and Latine, have smaller, less profitable businesses when compared to those owned by White entrepreneurs. The reason? Structural inequities exacerbated by national crises like rising inflation and the pandemic.

Sharpen your #2 pencils and join us to problem-solve how we help actualize the “American dream” for entrepreneurs of color. You’re officially invited to our back to school session happening on Wednesday, September 27, 2023, from 3:00 to 4:00 PM ET: “ Policies for Inclusive Entrepreneurship 101 [[link removed]]”!

This conversation will explore our recently released report published in collaboration with the Progressive Policy Institute, “ Inclusive Entrepreneurship Is Key to Unlocking Equal Opportunity [[link removed]]” that highlights the long-standing structural inequities that have limited entrepreneurs of color, how the pandemic exacerbated those inequities, and provides examples of how organizations in three cities across the country supported entrepreneurs of color in their communities using pandemic relief funds.
