Sharing this email with my network: Are you working on the next game-changing startup?   Get ready to take the stage and pitch your venture to investors for the chance to win up to $10,000 in non-dilutive capital!   We're calling all Founder Baddies to participate in BaddieCon's inaugural pitch competition! We believe that the next generation of tech unicorns will be led by women of color, and we're breaking down barriers and shattering the systems that have long hindered access to capital for this extraordinary group of entrepreneurs. With the data telling us that over 60% of female entrepreneurs report facing discrimination when raising capital, and Black women receive less than 1% of venture capital (VC) funding in the United States, these statistics demand immediate action. Our Baddiepreneur Pitch Competition is a powerful countermeasure, providing a stage for underrepresented women founders to showcase their groundbreaking startups to a panel of elite investors and industry titans.   On August 15th, this transformative event will unfold as part of BaddieCon, our second annual conference, presenting women of color with an unparalleled opportunity to share their revolutionary business, vie for a cash infusion, build game-changing connections, and supercharge your startup's growth.   However, emerging victorious in this fierce competition requires more than just a great idea. To truly captivate the attention of our esteemed judges, you'll need: ✨ A Compelling Pitch Deck ✨ Market-Disrupting ✨ MVP/Proof of Concept ✨ Deep Understanding of Your Industry's Challenges ✨ A Clear Vision for Market Potential ✨ Scalability & Coachability ✨ Passion to Incorporate Feedback This is your moment to unleash your inner #Baddiepreneur. Submit your application today and seize this transformative opportunity to propel your startup to unprecedented heights! The deadline to apply is July 15. 👉🏾 👉🏾 👉🏾 https://lnkd.in/gGGDFVn2 👈🏾 👈🏾 👈🏾 #entrepreneurs #blackwomen #poc #startup #venturecapital

I loved last nights session with Tova Angsuwat, breaking down mindset barriers for yourself and others in the workplace. It was so wonderful to see an enthusiastic leader sharing these tips with us and have a much needed conversation on how to step into your most remarkable self with a wider group of women. My key takeaways from the session: 🔑 Self promoting isn’t a bad thing, it’s necessary to be noticed and appreciated for achievements/projects that you work on. “It’s not bragging if it’s based on facts”. 🔑 People don’t notice things just because you told them once. Some people are nice and will remember the projects you spearheaded, but most will forget if you stop yourself from continuing the conversation over time of your achievements. 🔑 Under-represented groups and minorities are less likely to self promote on average. So we need to advocate for ourselves and others! Thanks again to Tova and Mia Millman from Startmate for providing an insightful event!
