Essence Festival 2023 ushered a new group of entrepreneurs into the New Voices Family through the $150,000 pitch competition.
Three Black women entrepreneurs pitched on the Global Black Economic Forum Stage at the ESSENCE Festival of Culture on Saturday, July 1st, for a $75,000 grant, $50,000 grant and $25,000 grant and business coaching.
The history of the pitch competition has been sustained since July 2018, providing more than $1,250,000 in non-dilutive capital and over $650,000 of supportive services to pitch entrepreneurs.
“New Voices Foundation advances economic equity by closing gaps in access to capital, revenue, entrepreneurial education, and networking opportunities. Our growing and diverse ecosystem allows us to positively impact Black women-owned businesses as we disrupt the status quo in wealth generation,” said Richelyna Hall, Chief Impact Officer of New Voices Foundation.
