VISIONARY INVESTOR AMPLIFYING BLACK INNOVATION
ABOUT
Jewel Burks Solomon is Managing Partner at Collab Capital, an early-stage venture capital fund she launched to close the funding gap for Black entrepreneurs.
Prior to leading Collab Capital, Jewel was Head of Google for Startups US, where she created initiatives that deployed over $30M in non-dilutive capital to Black and Latino-led businesses since 2020. Jewel's passion for leveling the playing field for Black founders was born from her own experience.

Jewel serves on the boards of The Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta, Endeavor Atlanta and JP Morgan's Advancing Black Pathways. She is a member of the 2019 Class of Henry Crown Fellows within the Aspen Global Leadership Network at the Aspen Institute.
