DISRUPTION NOW SUMMIT 2020
SEPTEMBER 12, 2020
What is the Disruption Now Summit?
We believe innovation is a rebellion and disruption against the status quo. Equity won’t happen for communities of color waiting on institutions or the government to save us, we must organize and invest collectively.
This is a summit for black and brown entrepreneurs to connect, network, learn new skills, and to build or grow your business. This will not be a zoom meeting or a boring webinar. Disruption Now Summit will be like no other virtual event you have attended.
At Disruption Now Summit, you will:
Interact with peers, industry leaders, and corporate executives.
Learn new skills for the job, promotion or raise you to deserve.
Network with top tech companies and speak directly with recruiters hiring onsite.
Learn from startups and engage with successful entrepreneurs.
Interact with leading investors and venture capitalists.
Learn about emerging trends in AI, crowd investing, marketing, and more.
Not just another webinar!
Why Disruption Now?
In these times we must disrupt: Black and brown communities are underrepresented in corporate leadership and underfunded as founders.
- Just 1% of Venture Capitalist-backed founders are Black.
- Black women are the opening the most businesses of any demographic, yet only account for .0006% of venture capitalist capital.
Equity won’t happen for communities of color waiting on institutions or government to save us. We must organize and invest collectively.
Join us at the Disruption Now Summit!
