Rooted Success: Cultivating Community & Collaboration EP 3 | Fiverr

Rooted Success is a three-part series that sheds light on the nuanced experience of what it means to be a Black business owner through the lens of ten entrepreneurs who have participated in the Fiverr Future Collective accelerator, a program in partnership with 1863 Ventures, aimed to bolster Black entrepreneurs by offering them resources, funding, and mentorship to maximize growth opportunities.

In our third and final episode, we are joined by three of our cohort members, each running community-driven businesses. In this video each entrepreneur discusses why they prioritize community and how it has contributed to the success of their brands, the realities that Black business owners are likely to face with fewer employees and how they lean on the resources that they do have and collaborations with other entrepreneurs to push their missions forward.
