Episode 212 - The 'frivolous' lawsuit over DEI funding - Carolyn Rodz and Elizabeth Gore of Hello Alice
Carolyn Rodz and Elizabeth Gore are the co-founders of Hello Alice, a tech platform designed to help small business owners navigate their path of entrepreneurship. Now serving 1.4 million small businesses across all 50 states, Hello Alice has reached a new milestone — one they’d likely rather live without. The company, which has helped facilitate equitable grant finding to thousands of founders of color and women, is being sued for racial discrimination. Elizabeth and Carolyn join the show today to share why they believe the lawsuit is frivolous — and how they’ve taken the reins of the messaging of this lawsuit to shine a spotlight on female founders and founders of color.
