Data shows that having a diverse* team is good for both business and social equity. Yet, it’s something that very rarely just happens. Our unintentional default, in fact, tends to be to surround ourselves with people just like us—to stick to our social circles.
Entrepreneurs have the unique opportunity to intentionally design their business foundation and culture to be welcoming and attractive to many types of people. This panel will discuss strategic ways to build inclusion into your new venture, from defining core values to hiring staff. Join us – and let’s think outside of the circle.
*our definition of diversity is broad, covering such areas as ethnicity, gender, LGBTQ, age, background, socioeconomic status, and more.
We'd like to invite you to spend your morning with us on Wednesday, October 28th, from 8am-9:30am. We're putting on a 5K to raise breast cancer awareness. Run, walk, skip, jump, and be merry with us. The route starts down the Burke Gilman and will shimmy through Gasworks Park. Stick around after the race concludes to eat some breakfast noms and jam out to some early morning disco tunes at our Fremont location.
The event is free but we'd appreciate any donations you can put forth.
100% of proceeds will go to raise funds for Dr. V.K. Gadi‘s research at Fred Hutchinson Medical Research Center. 5K t-shirts will be available for $20 with all proceeds supporting Dr. Gadi and his team.
Time: Run begins at 8:30AM
Starting and Ending: Fremont thinkspace
