We launched BK-XL in 2022 with a commitment to support underrepresented entrepreneurs with the requisite funding, network support, and access to resources to build extraordinary, enduring companies. We couldn't be more excited to welcome our new cohort to Brooklyn.
The 2023 inaugural BK-XL cohort included twelve startups across fintech, commerce, SaaS, and other industries in Brooklyn, and provided valuable insight in supporting the needs of underrepresented founders.
The program welcomes startups registered anywhere in the U.S. to apply and build their companies in Brooklyn. The Social Justice Fund and the BK-XL team are partnering with leading investing firms such as Benchstrength, Visible Hands, Udy Road, Harlem Capital, Infinity Ventures, and WndrCo who will serve on a program advisory council.
