Support for Black Women Entrepreneurs

The work of our friends at the Renaissance Entrepreneurship Center was recently featured in a KPIX CBS Channel 5 Bay Area news story focused on the unique challenges faced by black women entrepreneurs.

While black women are the fastest-growing demographic of entrepreneurs, they’re earning significantly less due to a lack of support and resources. That’s where organizations like Renaissance come in, providing equitable access to the tools necessary for entrepreneurs to succeed. Renaissance serves all genders but with a client base of 76% women, they have a thriving women’s business center to serve the unique needs of women entrepreneurs from various backgrounds and communities.

Three women served by the center are featured in the video, including Tracy Phillips, owner of Confetti This Lifestyle Boutique, Renaissance’s Emerging Entrepreneur of the Year.
