💖 Today is World Refugee Day, designated by the United Nations to honour refugees around the globe. 🌍 This week is also Refugee Week, the world’s largest arts & culture festival that celebrates the contributions, creativity and resilience of refugees and people seeking asylum. 🦄 At i³ investing, we’re passionate about spotlighting migrant founders as an integral part of our intersectional incredibles Forums (iiF) taking place July 16th in London. Within this theme, involuntary migration as refugees is also critical to spotlight. 💚 That’s why we’re delighted to be partnering with the Refugee Venture Fund at TERN - The Entrepreneurial Refugee Network, the UK’s first investment fund for refugee founders, and the largest refugee business community in the UK. 🔥 Intersectionality sits at the heart of our work because we recognise the superpowers of intersectional incredible founders. In their strength, perseverance, ingenuity, and wisdom as underrepresented entrepreneurs who have so much to contribute. 🙋♀️ If you want to join us for a day where we spotlight intersectionality as criteria for investment into incredible LGBTQ+ founders and migrant founders, grab yourself a ticket for iiF by i³ investing on July 16th: https://lnkd.in/dUCXD37c HSBC Innovation Banking Google Cloud Mishcon de Reya LLP Newton Venture Program Crunchbase Choose Love Rainbow Railroad #refugeeweek #migrant #lgbtq #founders #investors #iif #intersectionalincredibles #i3investing

Our iiF (un)conference has been featured in Startups Magazine 😍 A MAJOR thank you to the team for covering what will be the first intersectionality event for LGBTQ+ and migrant startup founders. In the words of our founder, Christian Tooley: "There are many VC conferences, but none that are dedicated to candidly unpacking intersectionality. We want to bridge that gap and tackle ‘diversity-washing’ across the VC and startup ecosystems. This is an opportunity to turn LGBTQ+ inclusion on its head, nurture connections that will foster change, and gather unique insights." iiF is happening on July 16th at Google HQ in London, and you can register right now: https://lnkd.in/dUCXD37c Read the article from Startups Magazine: https://lnkd.in/eBvawQFs #lgbtq #investing #startups #founders #vc Google HSBC Innovation Banking Newton Venture Program Mishcon de Reya LLP Crunchbase
