The narrative around female investors is due for a refresh, according to J.P. Morgan’s newly released 2024 Diverse Investor study, which surveyed 1,069 Americans over age 25 with at least $25,000 in investable assets. One major glimmer of hope: More Black, Hispanic, and Latina women are investing than in prior years. In fact, 51% of Hispanic and Latina women respondents and 46% of Black women respondents started investing outside of an employer-sponsored retirement plan within the past five years, compared to 24% of all respondents.
I am incredibly grateful to be part of the 2024 Black Ambitionist Mentorship Program! ?? As Lead Mentors, we have had the honor of guiding and supporting the next generation of underrepresented entrepreneurs these past couple of months. It has been a privilege to facilitate curated sessions with the goals of founder growth, company growth, and resilient relationships.
A heartfelt thank you to Black Ambition and Cinematica Labs for this incredible opportunity to engage emerging founders and help them achieve their dreams. Your commitment to championing diverse? founders and positioning them to excel uninterrupted is truly inspiring.
To all the talented founders I’ve had the pleasure of working with Karl Kamdem , Joyce Medeiros , Ian Maddox , Jonathan Katende , Angelé D. Marcus Cooksey , Andrea Martin Inokon – congratulations on your hard work, dedication, and perseverance! Your ideas are reshaping the future, and I’m proud to be part of your journey.
