JFF Ventures will be supported by our newly-formed Corporate Innovation Council, a group of forward-thinking leaders in talent management and development, investing, and corporate social responsibility who will advise tech entrepreneurs on how to tackle some of today’s most critical challenges related to equity, inclusion, and economic mobility.
The founding members of the Council are the following senior leaders:
Promising innovations often do not reach their full impact potential because they are not informed by potential users at large employers. Bringing together these disparate actors can supercharge impact at scale. More specifically, the Council will drive impact for:
JFF Ventures portfolio companies to drive scale and reach by receiving direct feedback from leaders who understand the market and customer needs.
Council members to gain visibility into tech-based learning and work-focused innovations, advise an inspiring group of entrepreneurs, and build community among mission-aligned leaders.
The Council’s work will be made possible through generous support from Strada Education Network. The programming experience will be designed and led by JFF’s Corporate Leadership team, in partnership with JFF Ventures.
