First things first — I love food. And I also want to help people, like my diabetic Dad, understand how what we eat affects our health. That’s why I created Foodspace Technology. As a member of Salesforce Accelerate Build Cohort 10, I’ve had the ability to learn and grow and build my business.
This program is different from other accelerators I’ve attended. The education and training offered in accelerator programs are always great, but this cohort is exclusively for Black entrepreneurs. Last year, many companies made commitments to improve their diversity, equity, and inclusion practices. Salesforce even wrote about their own commitment to investing $100 million through Salesforce Ventures to empower companies led by Black and underrepresented minority founders. So Cohort 10 is different.
As a Black entrepreneur, I can appreciate being in a group with other founders who share my experiences and can relate to my journey thus far in building a startup.
