SE Color was launched in November 2020 during our AdvanSE Life Sciences Conference. SE Color’s mission is to support minority life science entrepreneurship, increase investment in minority-owned life science businesses, and improve minority access to information and clinical opportunities.
Our first initiative major initiative is to increase minority participation in vaccinations and clinical trials. We launched this initiative at the AdvanSE Life Sciences conference with a panel focused on the reason for distrust in the community and actions the industry can take to work through that distrust. We will continue to educate ourselves and the community to better understand the challenges and solutions.
In addition, we are hosting our first SE Color Pitchrounds on June 24, 2021 in conjunction with the Women@SLS conference. The winner will receive a $10,000 prize as well as other benefits.
