Realities of this stage

Simply getting to a prototype or doing the research and development necessary can be beyond the financial means of many aspiring entrepreneurs

On average, resources available in Black communities aren't as high as they are for other groups

Finding and getting in front of angel investors can be a difficult task

Venture capital investments have historically been disproportionately concentrated with non-Black business owners

Sale of an established business requires the help of brokers and other mediaries
