The Inclusive Entrepreneurship Foundation was launched in London in 2017 to provide underserved entrepreneurs in that city greater access to resources and opportunities for growth by investing in the incubators and accelerators that specifically serve them. Through the program, we have funded and supported the work of eight outstanding organizations that work with women, communities of color, military veterans and diverse young people, with an eye towards regional and national impact.
The Reward-ventures Entrepreneurs Network takes a holistic approach to building thriving and inclusive entrepreneurship economies across the globe. We invest our time, resources and intellectual capital to empower founders and their communities. Our programs include mentorship, training and networking for founders, as well as strengthening the capacity of entrepreneurship support organizations (ESOs) to invest in a diverse and inclusive pipeline. We also convene ers across stakeholder groups to break down barriers and collaborate in building a stronger entrepreneurial ecosystem for all. We want the communities we serve to go fast and go far – and we give them the tools to get there.
