SXSW hasn’t exactly prioritized Black founders and funders this year—but that doesn’t mean we can’t prioritize each other.

We're kicking off Fictive Ventures this year, and as we get ready to start deploying capital next quarter, we want to make sure we're meeting the Black founders who should be in our pipeline—and making sure y’all are connecting with the investors who actually get it. My Founders Keeper is creating intentional connections for Black entrepreneurs. And the Center for Black Entrepreneurship is accepting applications for it's free incubator for Black-led startups in Atlanta (soon to be launched nationally).

So let’s get together. No panels, no pitches—just real conversations with people who want to see each other win. If you’re a Black founder looking for funding or a funder looking for the right deals, pull up. Let’s build real connections, make sure capital is actually moving our way, and enjoy ourselves while we’re at it.
