Advocacy for Marginalized Businesses

At the heart of the Gatsby Showcase Foundation is a commitment to fostering equity, inclusion, and meaningful change for underrepresented business owners. Our founders are passionate advocates, actively working to shape policies that promote these values. One of our key initiatives includes recent advocacy efforts on Capitol Hill, where we joined forces with the U.S. Black Chambers to ensure that the voices of marginalized entrepreneurs are not only heard but amplified.

By engaging directly with policymakers, we strive to address the unique challenges faced by these business owners, driving systemic changes that create a more inclusive economy. We believe that dismantling the barriers hindering marginalized businesses is critical to building a prosperous future for all. Our work focuses on creating tangible pathways to success—whether it’s through access to capital, fair representation, or industry opportunities—allowing these entrepreneurs to thrive in a competitive landscape.

Through sustained advocacy, the Gatsby Showcase Foundation aims to empower marginalized businesses and contribute to a more equitable and flourishing business ecosystem.
