Building Wellness and Wealth
Building Wellness and Wealth
The combination of an economic downturn, the existing structural barriers for historically underserved communities, and a glorified “hustle” culture that causes founder burnout are making the founder journey more lonely and overwhelming than ever before.
Join us at “Building Wellness and Wealth,” a half-day event for underrepresented founders presented by Visible Hands, WeWork, and SVB for authentic community-building and conversation around best early-stage startup practices and protecting founder wellness. Learn from successful BIPOC entrepreneurs and operators from the Visible Hands community about building wealth and wellness for yourself and your team. After the capped event, we will have an open happy hour for anyone to join from 1-2 PM. Get ready to walk away with actionable advice, new connections, and maybe even feel re-energized during SXSW.
This event will be an intentional space for underrepresented founders, meaning you identify as a woman and/or a person of color and/or gender nonbinary/trans. You do not need a SXSW pass to join this event. We thank our co-organizers: Goodie Nation, Parabeac, Inicio Ventures, LBAN, VCFamilia for their support. Please register if you can come as the event capacity is limited and we want to include everyone who can make it.
