Check us out in the list of 14 Georgia based startups funded by Google for Startups !
“Today’s investment from Google is more proof that the Fifth District is home to tech and Black excellence,” says Congresswoman Nikema Williams (GA-05), when asked about the fund. “Atlanta is home to four times more Black people working in the tech sector than San Francisco, and we are poised to become the Silicon Valley of the South. But access to capital is another obstacle Black entrepreneurs must overcome in the face of structural racism. I am confident that with this support, talented entrepreneurs will have the resources needed to elevate their ventures. I thank Google for their support, but also for taking another step to honor their commitment to racial equity in entrepreneurship.”
The fourteen Georgia-based startups in the cohort represent the state’s FinTech, B2B, HealthTech, and MediaTech spaces.
