Google for Startups Immersion: Black Founders Showcase

If we want technology to work for everyone, it needs to be built by everyone - and that's why Google for Startups is investing in founders from under-represented groups to build better technology and tools for all.

The Google for Startups Immersion: Black Founders is a 12-week program designed for high-potential startups from across Europe. The 11 startups are tackling challenges in healthcare, energy, advertising, beauty and manufacturing.
