What would it look like if Rochester became a model for the most diverse, equitable and inclusive entrepreneurial ecosystem in the country?

Not only would the entrepreneurs themselves come from a diversity of backgrounds, but the types of businesses they would start and the customers they would serve would also reflect the diversity of our community. Opportunity would be broadly shared and our economy would be more dynamic, robust and resilient too!

What would it take to get there?
