As part of our Purpose, the Nasdaq Foundation will work to support women and under-represented minority communities by focusing on two goals:
-
Reimagining investor engagement to equip under-represented communities with the financial knowledge to share in the wealth that markets create
-
Leveraging our investment in the Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center alongside new strategic partnerships with organizations that can help build a deeper, data-led understanding where the challenges are greatest, what existing efforts could be amplified, and how the Nasdaq Foundation can make new and distinctive contributions
Advancing Investor Engagement
The Nasdaq Foundation is accepting grant requests for programs that align with our focus of diversifying entrepreneurship and empowering a more diverse group of investors.
The work by all of our grant recipients enhances our efforts to advance diversity in investor engagement.
Through this initiative, the Foundation is striving to empower first-time investors and unlock greater market participation
