Racial Equity in Technology Entrepreneurship (RETE) Workshop

The RETE workshop serves as a platform to foster collaboration, share research, and address critical challenges related to racial equity and technology entrepreneurship. Each year, the workshop features leading voices in the field, hosting sessions that encourage dialogue and research on topics such as inclusive innovation and the implications of racial equity in policy and entrepreneurship.

This workshop exists to expand the body of research across academic disciplines at the intersection of race, technology, innovation, and entrepreneurship. In just two short years our workshop has convened a racially and ethnically diverse group of approximately 143 scholars, practitioners, and leaders from 90 different organizations, including 70 different colleges and universities across 4 continents (Africa, Asia, Europe, and North America), currently engaged in this work. This was made possible by generous funding from the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation.
