There is something happening in Tulsa that everyone in this state who cares about job creation and innovation in Oklahoma needs to know about.

It is called ACT Tulsa and it is a six-month accelerator program aimed at cultivating underestimated founders located in Tulsa and beyond.

What do I mean by underestimated? Founders who are minorities and have not traditionally received investments.

Black founders receive roughly 1% of all venture capital funding in this country. One of the main reasons for that is because Black venture capitalists only make up about 2% of the venture capitalist demographic.
