In this episode, your co-host Nikishka Iyengar talks to tech entrepreneur and ecosystem builder, Aniyia Williams about a framework they call ‘systems entrepreneurship’. Systems entrepreneurship directly addresses systemic inequities while building ecosystems and movements (rather than just companies or industries).

Highlights:

• The journey to becoming a systems entrepreneur and what it entails

• The tech industry’s broken-ness as it relates to venture capital, and alternative financing tools

• Building ecosystems of support for tech entrepreneurs of color

• The importance of conflict resolution skills as a tool for a more liberated economy

• Mutualism and re-building the social safety net
