Innovation does not have to be a zero-sum game. A high tide of new ideas and ingenuity raises all ships. For thousands of years, innovators from diverse communities have changed the world for the better—you will hear some of their stories here. Yet, traditionally, entrepreneurship and innovation spaces are dominated by majority groups. We can do much better. This is an opportunity for us all.

Race to Innovation weaves together stories of diverse innovators of the past, interviews with today’s innovation greats, and lived experiences in the innovation industry and personal entrepreneurship. Together, we prove that when we fully engage and empower more perspectives in the right way, we create opportunities that change our world for the better, not just socially, but also economically. Leveraging our differences can help us make a difference—not just in how we all live together, but in how we all thrive together.
