TC Sessions: Justice 2021 – A Deep Dive into Tech Equity
The event, TC Sessions: Justice 2021, is rapidly approaching – occurring in less than two weeks. This one-day event will provide an in-depth exploration of diversity, inclusion, and equity within the technology sector.
March 3rd presents a valuable opportunity to listen to and interact with individuals actively shaping the tech landscape. These leaders, spanning entrepreneurship, venture capital, advocacy, and labor organization, are leveraging and challenging technology to foster positive change.
A Program Focused on Justice
The day’s schedule is full of presentations, breakout sessions, and interactive question-and-answer periods. Participants will hear from prominent figures dedicated to advancing justice within the tech industry. Review the agenda and plan your participation accordingly.
We are particularly excited to showcase the founders participating in our TC Include Program. Connecting with these impressive early-stage entrepreneurs is a must; they were nominated by our partner organizations – Black Female Founders, Latinx Startup Alliance, Startout, and the Female Founders Alliance.
The TC Include Program
TechCrunch, in partnership with leading VC firms such as Kleiner Perkins, Salesforce Ventures, and Initialized Capital, alongside the aforementioned organizations, offers these emerging founders year-long access to educational resources and mentorship.
Furthermore, the TC Include founders will participate in a live pitch feedback session with a member of the TechCrunch staff during the conference. Be sure to tune in and take notes – the insights shared could significantly improve your own pitch deck.
