Google for Startups opens applications for $2 Million European fund for Black founded tech startups 02 March 2021
Source: Google Google for Startups announces applications are now open for $2million (approximately £1.5million) Black Founders Fund for Black-led tech startups across Europe. With less than 0.25 percent of venture capital (VC) funding going to Black-led startups in the UK, and only 38 Black founders receiving venture capital funding in the last 10 years, Black founders are disproportionately lacking access to the networks and capital needed to grow their businesses.
