Lynn Loacker is Managing Director, Project W – an initiative of the law firm Davis Wright Tremaine (DWT) that offers a series of accelerator programs for female founders, organises affinity groups for women professionals, and partners with like-minded organisations to help women scale great companies and elevate their careers.
Forging ahead with its mission to invest in the success of women and empower female founders, Project W has just announced a fourth Tech Equity Hub, which includes 10 founders who are breaking barriers and solving big problems across these industries and fields:
🔹 Fashion and beauty
🔹 Construction
🔹 Work force and career development in the tech and food industries
🔹 Financial services for small businesses
🔹 Law
🔹 Healthcare
Says Loacker:
Many [of these founders] are focused on lifting up and serving individuals from historically underserved and underrepresented communities.
These founders are on their way to building highly successful and impactful companies, and Tanea Foglia and Emily Fallon Baum have put together a terrific program that will accelerate their journey.
