FWD Collective

FWD Collective is located in Chicago, United States on Chicago. FWD Collective is rated 3 out of 5 in the category program development in United States. We are a collective dedicated to professional inclusion. We host summits internationally featuring women, P.O.C., and under-represented communities. Our events connect emerging entrepreneurs with established business professionals by facilitating discussions on business development, venture capital, building teams, and beyond. We started in Chicago in September 2016 as the VentureFWD Summit and expanded to San Francisco in March of 2017. After two events and connecting with people across the country, our new path ahead was clear! Focusing on diversity and inclusion within the investment community is crucial, although there is a bigger need that we could not get passed. This mission drives us to pop-up in as many cities as possible over the next few years, to expand our conversations, open up opportunities, and create an international community dedicated to professional inclusion and diversity.
