“When we think about gaps, we’re thinking about gaps for people of color, Black, Latinx, and Indigenous people. People living in rural communities. We really see tech as a lever to close those gaps,” says Jackson.

She continues, “We’re looking at accelerated learning programs. We’re looking at wraparound supports and innovations in transportation and childcare.”

Entrepreneurs operating in the green sector are import to Kapor, according to Jackson, noting climate justice is a priority for the organization.
