PROGRAM - TARMAC TXIn 2016, INCO US launched Tarmac TX, an accelerator for social entrepreneurs and nonprofit organizations in Austin. The program was renewed in 2017 and 2018 thanks to a 3M grant of $95,000. Based in Austin, Texas, the 9-month program offered selected startups and nonprofit organizations free support services, including a co-working space, events & workshops, mentorship and networking opportunities in both the Tech and the Social ecosystems. Why TARMAC TXOver the past few years, Austin has become an increasingly robust tech hub, seeing the emergence of powerful tech startups and attracting more and more tech giants. In the meantime, according to Mission Capital, it has also become home to almost 6,000 nonprofits - the highest number of nonprofits per capita in the Southwest US, demonstrating the city's will to improve the local community. Our ambition is to bridge the gap between technology and social innovation. We are convinced that technology can more effectively address our community's biggest unmet social and environmental challenges. But we also know first-hand that such challenges cannot be solved by a sole person. Social entrepreneurs need the right support to fulfill their mission.What we doTarmac TX equips social entrepreneurs with the necessary skill set and connections and helps them access funding to reach their intended impact. Going through Tarmac TX, social entrepreneurs refine their product, test their solution in the marketplace, cultivate relationships with the right partners, mentors, and investors to grow their venture and thus maximize their social and/or environmental impact. Tarmac TX is a free 9-month acceleration program based in Austin, TX that fosters technology solutions addressing social and environmental issues. A partnership between San Francisco-based nonprofit organization INCO US and 3M, Tarmac TX enables talented entrepreneurs to grow and amplify their impact through:- Classes & Workshops : Tailored classes & workshops to acquire the skills need by entrepreneurs- Mentorship : One-on-one mentorship to get guidance and feedback- Networking & Events : Access to a local network & events to gain visibility- Office Space : Free co-working space for the founding team - International Network : Access to our global network of 16 partner accelerators in 14 countriesSince its creation, the program supported a total of 25 startups and non-profit organizations, including 64% of these organizations founded by diverse entrepreneurs and 67% of them founded by at least one woman co-founder.
PROGRAM - POW'HER IN TECHIn 2018, INCO US launched Pow'her in Tech, a three-year partnership with the Chanel Foundation to promote gender equality in tech. INCO US will receive a total grant of EUR819,268 over the three years.INCO US works on this project with INCO.ORG, a French nonprofit organization. As part of this project, INCO US's main responsibilities are to supervise and manage all U.S.-related activities pertaining to the project.Why Pow'her in TechWomen comprise only 35.7% of the workforce in High Tech. Indeed, women face a number of barriers today that can prevent them from entering and thriving in the tech sector. Those barriers are visible on multiple levels:1) Work environments often do not allow women to combine aspects of their personal lives (such as motherhood) with their professional careers.2) Women are still generally underrepresented in many industries, especially in leadership positions. These male-dominated industries can be exclusionary and slow-changing.3) Gender-based stigmas persist for women technologists and engineers regarding their perceived credibility and skills.By highlighting best practices, raising awareness on inequality, and training and connecting women, our ambition is to help women combat barriers when attempting to enter tech with attention on practical solutions that industry can implement.What we doPower'her in Tech aims to promote gender equality and women inclusion in tech by identifying and disseminating practical solutions.For this purpose, 3 levers of actions were identified to successfully disseminate best practices and address gender stereotypes in the tech industry, educate and train women into tech-related jobs, and improve their employability and career path in tech companies: - Identifying and sharing best practices (with a case study on gender inequality in the tech industry). INCO US actively participates in the research, interview, and overall production efforts of this part of the project, with a special focus on U.S. and continental America-related insights and materials.- Raising awareness on gender inequality in tech (though awareness rising campaigns about women inclusion in tech). INCO US carries communication efforts, both online and in-person.- Training and connecting women (through training programs based on on-site and online learning, and connection to mentors and employers). INCO US is responsible for the effective sourcing and onboarding of U.S.-based partners that will use the INCO Academy e-learning platform and content.In 2019, we focused on the case study on gender inequality in the tech industry. This practical guide aims to 1) better understand the implications of gender inequality in the tech world and its aftermath in order to 2) highlight best practices - from tech companies or elsewhere - that can inspire us all.We also started to promote gender equality in leading tech events such as the Women Startup Challenge Europe and the BPI Innovation Generation (BIG), Europe's largest startup & entrepreneurship event.
