Diversity is about reflecting the mixture of differences and similarities found in the world and acknowledging the related tensions as we strive to develop more inclusive and high-performing environments.
Equity is a process that begins by acknowledging unequal starting places and finding ways to address the imbalance. It is ensuring that everyone has the access to opportunities.
Inclusion is the full engagement of individuals sharing power at all levels of an organization. All members are valued, respected and supported.
When you look at the
Techstars Code of Conduct you will see that the principle of inclusion has been part of Techstars since day one. We believe that to develop an inclusive environment we give first, we act with integrity, and we treat others with respect.
