NewME Launches New Website Connecting Minority Startups & Entrepreneurs Across The World
Today is NewME Community worldwide meetup day where hundreds of minority entrepreneurs are hosting meetup events in their respective communities. Using the meetup.com everywhere platform 62 cities among over 400 participants have planned to host a NewME Community meetup either on worldwide meetup day or in the near future.
As we continue to provide resources for startups & entrepreneurs we wanted to provide a platform to help continue the conversation and build relationships, therefore we launched NewMECommunity.org website. The site is still in beta but it features a startup directory, an entrepreneurs directory, a community forum and more. Here’s a screenshot.
We’re just getting started and excited about the future of NewME Community and NewME Accelerator. If you have a startup and/or an entrepreneur please submit to the directory as we’re planning some more ways the platform can be of service.
In addition to meetups, NewME Community will also offer educational resources, workshops, mentorship and more in the near future.

The purpose of NewME Community is to spread the NewMe mission to new locations and individuals around the world. At its core, NewME is focused on increasing the resources available for minority (African-Americans, Latinos, and Women) tech entrepreneurs by providing a platform for success and a local entrepreneurship community. Through collaboration we all become stronger and more knowledgeable. NewME Community will serve as a meeting place for local minority entrepreneurs to gather, learn, network, and share with each other for the greater good of the community.
