SXSW 2021
Taking Action Towards a More Equitable Company
Description:
At Venture Café we believe that innovation is for everyone. That’s why for SXSW we have put together a team of experts to discuss “Taking Action Towards a More Equitable & Inclusive Company Today.” This is not a lesson in ideology, in this session we will give real world, actionable examples of how you can create a pathway to make your company more equitable. Find out how these leaders use innovation and the power of community to create leadership opportunities for BIPOC, create products with diversity in mind, and how to hire, retain and promote diverse teams.
It’s not about theory, it’s about action. Vote for this session because business is integral in the movement to create a more equitable & economically thriving society.
