For the past decade, Women of Color have started businesses at a record pace. But these women often have access to less capital and resources and therefore wind up generating less revenue than their counterparts. On top of that, juggling entrepreneurship with motherhood presents its own unique set of challenges. The Mosaic Mommies Pitch Contest & Accelerator Program is designed to uplift Mompreneurs of Color and help alleviate some of the barriers to success they face.

WHAT IS THE MOSAIC MOMMIES ACCELERATOR & PITCH CONTEST?
The Mosaic Mommies Accelerator & Pitch Contest is a chance for Mompreneurs of Color to receive 4 weeks of business coaching where they will refine their business pitch, learn how to secure funding, and lay the groundwork for future success. During the accelerator, a select number of finalists will be invited to participate in a live pitch contest to be held in person on October 13th in New York City. From there, three winners will be chosen to receive cash prizes and business support services.

WHO SHOULD PARTICIPATE?*
- Mom of Color Business Owner/Entrepreneur/Founder
- Early Stage Startup (under $250K in revenue).
- Scalable Business Model
- US-Based
* We will consider exceptions on a case-by-case basis.
