IMPACT INVESTING THROUGH A CREATIVITY LENS with RADICLE IMPACT, CREATIVE STARTUPS, COLORADO ENTERPRISE FUND & UPSTART CO-LAB

The Creative Economy is more than $730 billion annually in the US - but 0% of impact investing is currently targeting food, fashion, media, design, film/tv, music, live performance and the rest of the creative industries. This panel covers how to incubate and grow a creative startup, investing for financial return and social good, and why now is the time to bring capital that values inclusion, equity and sustainability to this fast growing segment of the economy.

Moderator: Laura Callanan, Upstart Co-Lab

Panelists: Corey Vernon, Radicle Impact // Alice Loy, Creative Startups // Anne Misak, Colorado Enterprise Fund

Hosted by: Denver Startup Week Designer Track | Upstart Co-Lab | Radicle Impact | Creative Startups | Colorado Enterprise Fund
