Unlikely Coalitions Recoding the Tech Economy

Description:

The tech sector catalyzes new wealth, jobs, and solutions to pressing problems. At the same time, we find ourselves living in times where unequal access to tech opportunities for people of color widens economic inequity for generations to come. The barriers that leave people of color out of the tech economy also require strategic doers, optimistic collaborators, and radical visionaries to transform the system that produces the next generation of tech talent and entrepreneurs. This panel brings together leaders from unlikely coalitions in cities across the U.S. who are rebuilding the tech economy to be more inclusive from the ground up.
