It’s about supporting founders who have historically been #underserved and giving them the #access to resources, mentorship, #capital and networks, needed to succeed. 💡 Every contribution helps open doors to possibilities that transforms the future of tech, and contributes to strengthening our economy. When you give to Access Mode—you’re investing in the next generation of exceptional tech innovators. 🎯 Let’s make October 10th a 10/10 day for #philanthropy!

We had an incredible time at the Boulder Chamber Economic Summit today! 🎉 Grateful for the opportunity to showcase Access Mode during the Expo portion of the event and connect with the community that came out. Events like these are essential for fostering collaboration and driving forward-thinking discussions about the future of our economy! A big thank you to the Boulder Chamber and Joseph E Hovancak for organizing such a meaningful summit—it was a sold-out event for a reason! The insights shared by industry leaders and experts were inspiring, especially the panel on quantum innovation in our state by the Elevate Quantum / TechHubNow! team. Looking forward to more opportunities to collaborate and build an inclusive, thriving economy together. #EconomicSummit #Innovation #Entrepreneurship #ColoradoCommunity
