Currently, Black founders receive 0.5% of venture capital funding in the U.K. and 1% in the U.S. How can the tech industry change its approaches to hiring, leadership, and funding to live up to espoused ideals of diversity? Join us for an exclusive conversation with Gary Stewart, CEO and co-founder of The Nest, as we explore the issues facing Black entrepreneurs and how we can move forward to create lasting change in the tech space.
The session will be moderated by Regina Bain ’98, ’01 MFA, with the live audience Q&A managed by Wendy Maldonado D’Amico ’93.
This event is co-hosted by Accelerate Yale and the Yale Black Alumni Association, co-sponsored by Careers, Life, and Yale, and made possible by YAA Shared Interest Groups.
