I am writing to share some exciting news. Today, the Amazon Alexa Fund announced new programs to improve diversity, inclusion, and equity for tech startup founders. One of our first events is Women Founders Represent is a pitch event with All Raise offering up to $1 million investment from the Amazon Alexa Fund for women entrepreneurs on Thursday, November 19, 2020. We are looking for innovative women founders to apply to pitch to our panel of investors. The deadline to submit pitch applications is 5:00 PM PT on October 6, 2020. The event is designed to support women inclusive of non-binary individuals, genderqueer, genderfluid, gender non-conforming, LGBTQIA+, all minority genders, military and former military; and especially individuals identifying as Black, Latinx, and Native American and Indigenous. While we expect startups who have already secured at least $250K in funding (venture capital, friends and family, angel investors, grants, etc.), we welcome and encourage companies of all stages to apply.Here are some social copy if you’d like to share:Twitter: https://twitter.com/alexadevs?Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AlexaDevs/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/amazon-alexa-developers/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/amazon-alexa-fund_women-founders-represent-activity-6714208446880870400-wu3PThanks,Elizabeth
