digitalundivided, founded in 2012, is a leading nonprofit organization focused on disrupting systemic inequities in the entrepreneurial ecosystem. Through the use of data, innovative programs, intentional networks, and strategic advocacy, it builds equitable pathways to women founders, particularly for women of color, and addresses long-standing barriers to success in entrepreneurship.
One of the organization’s most influential contributions has been its research, notably the groundbreaking ProjectDiane report, which was the first to highlight the state of Black and Latina women founders. This historic research continues to drive digitalundivided’s expanded efforts, which have sparked global conversations on inclusion and equity in entrepreneurship.
digitalundivided runs several key programs—START, BIG Pre-Accelerator, BREAKTHROUGH, Do You Fellowship, and the New C-Suite—that provide essential resources, advisory services, and investments to support founders throughout their entrepreneurial journeys. While based in the U.S., its reach and impact have extended globally, resonating with over 250,000 people through its extensive ecosystem and over $750.000 in grants distributed to support women-led businesses.
The organization’s mission centers on breaking down entrenched systemic inequities in entrepreneurship, using a multipronged approach that includes data-driven programming, a supportive network of mentors and allies, and a commitment to systemic change. With more than a decade of experience, it has directly served over 1,500 founders and continues to foster economic independence and resilience through its ongoing work.
In the next three years, digitalundivided aims to expand its influence even further. Its goal is to triple its network of global capital partners, integrate its entrepreneurs into deal flows, and drive a 30% increase in women founders engaged in its programs. The organization has also invested in professional development and infrastructure to deliver more holistic support for founders, leveraging insights from its research to meet the needs of an evolving entrepreneurial landscape.
Through its hybrid approach—combining virtual accessibility with in-person engagement—digitalundivided remains at the forefront of inclusive innovation. Its continued commitment to research-backed programming ensures its offerings remain relevant and impactful, positioning the organization as a key driver of systemic change in the entrepreneurial space.
