Championing transgender, non-binary, and gender nonconforming entrepreneurs
Transgender, non-binary, and gender non-conforming folks are drastically under represented (if represented at all) in business. We believe this community is integral to the LGBTQ+ umbrella and business culture.
We are the Queer Business Alliance, with an emphasis on Queer. The QBA is a trans/gender non-conforming led organization that aims to champion this community. We do not require an application or certification program so there is no need for proving a gender identity – something that creates an additional barrier for this specific community.
We embrace and celebrate the gender and sexual identity diversity across our organization. There’s no box for entrepreneurs to fit into here.
Increasing accessibility for LGBTQ+ in business
- Provide free educational resources and promote partner orgs on social media - particularly Instagram and TikTok
- Provide micro-grants to remove barriers for LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs to reach established and venture capital stage - and funnel these to partner programs
- Increase the visibility of LGBTQ+ entrepreneur voices through the Queer Business Alliance Podcast
