Gender Identity and Sexual Orientation in Social Entrepreneurship | Online

About this event

Although social entrepreneurship is on the rise, members of marginalized groups still face manifold obstacles to starting their own venture, such as a systemic lack of support and resources. The pervasiveness of these challenges is made evident by the underrepresentation of minority groups in entrepreneurship in the United States, where more than 80% of entrepreneurs are white, 65% are male, and 88% of ventures are created in urban areas—statistics that do not reflect the diversity of this country.

This panel series will feature key individuals from within Resolution’s vast community of 400+ young social entrepreneurs, 100+ social sector organizations, and 500+ volunteers, as they share their experiences and insights as change-makers who faced these obstacles and succeeded.
