How to Create More Women and Minority Tech Founders

I'm the head of development for a venture capital studio and I've been thinking about how I can use my skills to make more of an impact. I came up with building tech companies for women and minority founders for equity only (i.e. it wouldn't cost any out of pocket money ).

Is this a worthwhile effort? Here are a few of my concerns...

- I'm white. I don't know if this matters but I thought I'd mention it. - Taking equity. This will be a business. The primary reason for making it a business and not a non profit, is that I think I can raise money for it if I can show how it can make money. This means more companies will be built that otherwise would not have been and it also proves to investors that they have been ignoring a hugely talented group of people. Also, it would be an amazing company to run.

I've built a site and am accepting submissions at www.sturdyfalcon.com ( funny name, I know ) , but really do want help shaping the mission / purpose of this project.

Thanks,

Andrew
