Building opportunity



IN PARTNERSHIP WITH
 



Our cities have a tremendous opportunity to unleash the talents of a new generation of Black, Indigenous, People of Color and Immigrant entrepreneurs. To do so, we need to remove the barriers that exist, and direct capital to where it can deliver real value. 
‍
That’s why CityAge and Color launched Entrepreneurs of Color: Building Opportunity. 

Watch now to learn from amazing entrepreneurs about how everyone can write their own story through entrepreneurship and business ownership to build a better future.
