NYC BLEND September Event: Inclusive Design

NYC Blend is a collaborative event series for the NYC tech community promoting diversity, inclusion, and empowerment. It is facilitated by VCs operating in the greater New York City area.

On September 10th, we're hosting a special event focused on exploring issues of diversity and inclusion through a product and design lens.

 

Specifically, we will explore questions like, how should founders and leaders think critically about addressing the needs of all of their users? What opportunities can you unlock by taking a more inclusive approach to product development? What systems and processes can you implement to make sure you and your entire team are being thoughtful and deliberate?


Join us for a special evening and be a part of the NYC Blend community.
