In Detroit, an initiative called Venture 313 is helping Black tech founders overcome challenges. One of the main obstacles faced by African American entrepreneurs is access to capital. Venture 313 provides assistance with this issue, as well as offering mentorship, networking, and other resources.

Further details about Venture 313 are available from American Black Journal, which has discussed the initiative with its managing partner and a founder who has benefited from its support. The story highlights the importance of such initiatives, particularly during National Black Business Month, in strengthening Detroit's tech ecosystem.
