What We Do

The Inclusive Capital Collective is a growing network of community fund managers and entrepreneur support organizations who have been designing and developing shared technical and financial infrastructure for aggregating and deploying financial capital and other resources to entrepreneurs and communities of color in the US. 

Its purpose is to overcome systemic racism through equitable access to capital. 

The ICC achieves this purpose by aiding and amplifying capital innovators and service providers who are building wealth in their communities using debt, equity and real estate instruments, and by connecting them in a jointly owned and governed network. With the ICC, capital innovators and service providers centering communities of color have created a novel kind of intermediary infrastructure to help each other accelerate the learning curve required to design and redesign for a more equitable future; mobilize capital; and grow their businesses. 

ICC capital innovators are exploring alternative types of capital, developing more equitable ownership models, and structuring blended finance offerings that mobilize a range of philanthropic and private capital. 

This work was important before the pandemic, and it has only become more urgent as we contemplate how to rebuild an economy and society that creates health and wealth for all.
