The Global Inclusion Online Forum Startup Pitch Contest is one of the first startup pitches that offers a platform to early-stage startups that are dealing with inclusion issues. In addition to what our innovation partners are pledging to donate, CFC Big Ideas commits to putting $6 from every paid ticket to the Forum into the prize fund.
