Inclusive Innovation Economy| The Actual State of Corporate Pledges Post-George Floyd

In honor of Black History Month we will look at the money that was pledged to Black companies after the George Floyd tragedy and take a closer look at how much has actually been distributed. We will discuss the intention and the real impact.

This conversation series seeks to engage leaders from our local civic community who are creating cultural change and to offer participants concrete actions for making a difference in their own circles.

By examining the hard problems constructed by systemic racism and sexism in the innovation ecosystem, every conversation is an opportunity for inclusion to take root.

This event is open to all members of the MIT community. Space is limited. Register early.
