Organization Acronym
Organization Description

Zebras Unite is a founder-created and founder-led movement. We invite you to join us and co-create and catalyse community, capital, and culture for people building businesses that are better for the world.
Inspired by "Sex & Startups," (published by Jen Brandell and Mara Zepeda), and "Zebras Fix what Unicorns Break," (co-authored with Astrid Scholz and Aniya Williams), more than 200 people came together for the inaugural DazzleCon in 2017 to explore alternatives to the white-male dominated, hockey-stick return expectations of the silicon-valley informed business and funding models for the overwhelming majority of entrepreneurs who don't fit that mould.
Movements are birthed by passion, and sustained by process, and the resounding message from Dazzlecon and beyond was "we want to grow this, and own this, together."
And so the movement took form as a co-operative.
