Editor's Notes

Downtown digital services agency Fearless has news today that it is sponsoring a pair of programs supporting Black entrepreneurs:

 

A new Downtown Partnership of Baltimore program will provide 5 Black-owned retail businesses with space, funding and expertise. It's called Downtown BOOST (Black-Owned & Occupied Storefront Tenancy): Presented by Fearless. Applications are due by March 10.

 

“BOOST provides capital and business tools to begin to overcome the systemic and structurally racist policies that have prevented Black people from building generational wealth for decades," CEO Delali Dzirasa said.

 

Fearless also signed on to be the title sponsor of Minority Innovation Weekend through 2025.  The agency pledged $50K for the annual event from The National Society of Black Engineers - Baltimore Metropolitan Area Chapter. It is also providing $60K for three pitch competitions over the coming years. The first will be in July 2021.
