INVESTING IN UNDERREPRESENTED FOUNDERS

Inside a Nex Cubed Accelerator

Our hands-on approach and close collaboration with founders helps to ensure tangible progress. With support from a vast global network of seasoned mentors, strategic advisors, proficient investors, and engaged alumni, we seek to offer unparalleled access and invaluable guidance, equipping entrepreneurs with the skills and knowledge needed for true success. Our four-month program surrounds companies with top mentors, a remarkable network of corporate partners, investors, and alumni, providing funding, fundraising opportunities, workshops, curated resources, and abundant peer learning moments.

Helping empower diverse voices in the entrepreneurship landscape

STRATEGIC INVESTMENT FOCUS

We back underrepresented founders with firsthand experience in solving real-world problems.

Our strategic investments focus on startups addressing critical issues in areas where equal access has been historically limited, like financial services, healthcare, education, and housing. Diversity, resilience, and relentless ambition help drive our founder selection process. Together, let's redefine what's possible and create lasting impact.
