About this Event
The Mission
As of 2026, Black founders still receive less than 0.5% of all venture capital. The biggest barrier isn't the lack of a "Unicorn" idea—it’s the lack of a "Friends and Family" network to fund the first prototype.
This Juneteenth, we are changing the math. Join us at the historic Masonic Temple for a night of high-impact networking, gourmet dining, and direct action. 100% of net proceeds will launch the Sacramento Black Founders Pre-Seed Fund, providing $50,000 equity-light grants to 20 local entrepreneurs.
What to Expect
- 6:00 PM: Red Carpet & Cocktail Hour (VIP Lounge opens)
- 7:15 PM: 3-Course Gourmet Dinner in the Grand Ballroom
- 8:15 PM: "The State of the Gap" Keynote & Live Founder Pitches
- 9:00 PM: The "Seed the Future" Live Pledge Drive
- 9:30 PM: Networking & Celebration
