Newswise ITHACA, N.Y. – Cornell University and Chloe Capital launched Diversity in ClimateTech, a new program to recruit, educate, inspire, and support capitalization in Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) and women founders developing startups with clean tech innovations.
Women and BIPOC entrepreneurs typically face more acute challenges scaling startups including limited access to, and attention from, investors. Additionally, clean tech innovation usually experiences slower adoption rates among customers and therefore slower revenue growth. The Diversity in ClimateTech program is designed to support diverse company founders with partners and programs in New York state’s Southern Tier region.
Program will support diverse founders of climate tech startups cornell.edu - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from cornell.edu Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
