Last night, we hosted our Black Male Unicorn Dinner at Tatiana’s, led by NYC’s top Black chef. It was an unforgettable evening that left me inspired. Of the ~20 Black men who’ve raised $100M+ in VC, we were honored to have 4 in the room — plus our special guest, Colin Kaepernick, a unicorn in his own right. Collectively, they’ve raised $800M+ and successfully exited 3 companies These extraordinary men remind me of the power we have to create our own tables and build opportunities that uplift our community. Conversations like these are essential to foster collaboration and amplify our collective impact.
