Description

Bunch of Founders is an inclusive community for underrepresented founders. Members meet in Slack channels where they ask for feedback, offer job opportunities, and seek investors interested in promoting diverse entrepreneurship. Within the community, you'll find invitations to free events and workshops organized by its members.

There is a resource section where you can access useful information for finding funds, cofounding matching tools, and programs for building a profitable business successfully.

Gefen, the founder, is a 23-year-old first-gen immigrant who seeks to build a community where inclusion and equity are the strongest values. She is a lead venture partner for Contrary Capital, a pre-seed venture fund backed by the founders of Tesla, Reddit, and Twitch, and she wants to help founders who don't have many opportunities to find help for setting up their business successfully.

You can join Bunch of Founders for free and find support for starting a successful business beyond your age, ethnicity, race, or religion.
