NYC Summit 2024: State of the Effect

​Please join us for:

​EQUITY IN ACTION:

​CONNECTING THE DOTS BETWEEN OWNING ‘EQUITY’ AND CREATING ‘EQUITY’

​Our Summit 2024 will focus on unlocking opportunity and social impact in this age of transformative technology by building inclusive leadership and ownership pipelines. Our discussions will emphasize how the exclusion of 99% of private company boards from key conversations limits not only company growth but also broader economic and societal progress.

​We are shifting from big-picture discussions to practical actions. The question for founders, investors, and executives is: What can we do today to create equity tomorrow? By helping pre-seed to Series A startups build diverse, fit-for-purpose boards, we unlock millions of opportunities for talented individuals outside traditional networks—creating pathways to equity ownership, career advancement, and investment.

​This is the systemic change we need, and it starts now.

​Agenda:

  • ​5:00 - 7:00: Opening remarks, Fireside Chats and Panel Discussions

  • ​7:00 - 7:30: Pitch Competition - will center around three key areas essential for our collective success: the well-being of our planet, our health, and our productivity.

    • ​1 startup in Climate Tech, Life Sciences and Future of Work will give a 3 minute pitch and receive feedback from judges. Attendees will get to help select the winner!

      • ​Founders: if you are in one of these areas and would like to apply to pitch, click HERE.

  • ​7:30 - 9:00: Voting on the pitches and networking.

  • ​8:00 - Pitch winner announced and closing remarks.
