ABOUT

One of the hottest topics of conversation in the startup community is the lack of funds being available for women + minority led startups. Although raising funds may be difficult for majority of startup founders, the statistics indicate that there is a more challenging path for women and minority tech founders.

 

Finesse Your Funds is a panel discussion highlighting diverse founders who have hurdled the obstacles of raising funds by using non-traditional methods such as pitch competitions, initial coin offerings, crowdfunding, grants to jumpstart their business.
