ICA: NOT BUSINESS AS USUAL

People of color, especially women of color, start businesses at higher rates than white people — but are constrained by structural inequities and often overlooked by mainstream funders.

• We’re proving there is a better way to structure capital and support racial equity in small businesses through our unique VC/equity model of financing.
• We act like a fast-paced lean startup – combining the best of the for-profit and nonprofit worlds with a laser focus on our entrepreneurs.
