Hello All
I am excited to share that Diversity X will have a stand at London Tech Week on Monday, 12th and Tuesday, 13th June (next week). Please do drop by and visit us if you will be there – and of course, please let any investors or underestimated founders know that we’ll be there.
But there is more – I’ll be speaking at the AI Summit London on 14th at the Tobacco Docks in AI and DIversity – where I will showcase some the companies within the DIversity X Founders’ Community who are building in AI. Come along and support.

I am pleased to share that Diversity-X is launching an angel syndicate. We are building a group of experienced and novice angel investors passionate about backing underestimated founders, particularly those building startups in climate tech, edtech, health tech, and the future of work.
Every founder, regardless of background or experience, should be able to turn their vision into a reality. We are committed to finding and investing in talented underestimated founders who have yet to be noticed by traditional venture capital firms and angel investors.
We believe that a greater diversity amongst angel investors will lead to better opportunities for great companies founded by underestimated founders.
According to a study by the UK Business Angels Association, only 14% of angel investors in the UK are women, and 11% are from ethnic minority backgrounds.
A more diverse angel investor community would lead to better investment decisions and help create a more inclusive economy.

Sounds like an excellent initiative Kevin! Networks are something that are available to those that are blessed but can represent a real block to breaking through. I’d be happy to support.

Probably worth clarifying here Kevin, this will be a paid opportunity – it’s just that you don’t know what the budget is??
