Strengthening the support for BIPOC entrepreneurs in Canada

In Canada, only 3.5% of venture capital funding went to companies with at least one female founder, and only 2.2% went to companies with at least one BIPOC founder in 2021. There is an increased need to support BIPOC founders with access to employment, education, funding, training and a network that provides them with the knowledge, skills, and agency they need to thrive in an ever-changing world. The project will entail developing and piloting an investment and financial management strategy for startups within the BIPOC ecosystem that Tribe Network supports.
