I’m happy to have found a BIPOC community for entrepreneurs and honoured to be a part of the first Tribe Network IDEA Fellowship.
By helping to provide resources and support that have historically been lacking for BIPOC entrepreneurs and community leaders, together we can shape a region that is more diverse, equitable and inclusive.
Working with Tribe Network influenced me to pursue my passion as a full-time creative entrepreneur. Through Tribe, I have connected with other BIPOC entrepreneurs and leaders, and found opportunities I may not have found elsewhere.
The Tribe Network has consistently helped us with mentorship, accessing non-dilutive funding, and making key industry introductions that has enabled us to grow.
