In the past year the movement demanding a more inclusive economy for all groups has grown. In this event StartOut and Socos Labs will highlight the findings of the StartOut Pride Economic Impact Index (SPEII), a data project designed to measure the progress of entrepreneurs belonging to many groups, while our diverse panel will unpack the significance of the results for a multitude of communities and identities across the New York Metropolitan Area. The panel will also consider commonalities of challenges among communities and a path forward for economic equity.

Panel members:

  • Diana Franco, Executive Director of WE NYC and Launch Initiatives (NYC Department of Small Business Services)

  • Tiffany Townsend, Senior VP External Affairs at Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation

  • Kenrick Ross, Executive Director at National Queer Asian Pacific Islander Alliance

  • Sandra Sick, Inclusion Impact Indexes Project Expert at StartOut

  • Emma Hashemi, Data Scientist at Soco Labs
