PANEL: Meet the Black founders building tech’s next big idea
17 Oct 2026
Tech Stage
Every major tech company started as a fast-moving, unproven idea. This session gets into what that stage actually looks like on the inside: how founders identify genuine growth potential in a crowded market, what it takes to secure all-important funding, and how to act before the window of opportunity closes. It’s also about what that pressure actually feels like, the doubt, the constant pace, the pivots, and how to stay steady through it. If you’re on the path to building the next tech unicorn, this is a conversation about how to navigate the messy middle without losing your way.
