Equity Angels, an organization focused on promoting equitable access to innovation and opportunity, has released its 2024 Impact Report. The report outlines its achievements during its inaugural year, emphasizing its support for underrepresented founders, job creation, capital access, and the development of a diverse advisory network in real estate, finance, and technology.
“The depth of talent within Equity Angels’ founder community is remarkable. The program combines practical business guidance with genuine relationship building,” said Marci James, an Equity Angels Program Mentor and Founder of Be Inspired Digital.
The report underscores the rise in entrepreneurship among women, Latino, and Black founders while highlighting ongoing barriers to funding, networking, and exit opportunities. It cites research estimating trillions of dollars in potential revenue if businesses led by underrepresented groups received equitable opportunities.
Pierre Calzadilla, Co-Founder of Upfront and a participant in the Equity Angels Catalyst Program, noted, “As a Latino in proptech, I worked my way up for over 15 years, and still — with all my experience — the mentorship and support from Equity Angels significantly enhanced my growth and readiness as a founder.”
The report concludes by inviting readers to join Equity Angels in fostering a more inclusive startup ecosystem.
“Together, we’re not just building businesses — we’re shaping a future where all entrepreneurs have the opportunity to rise and thrive,” said Maximillian Diez, an Equity Angels supporter and General Partner of Twenty Five Ventures.
