Howard Law Artificial Intelligence Initiative
Howard Law Artificial Intelligence Initiative Impact Foundry
The Impact Foundry aims to support racially and sexually diverse entrepreneurs developing equity-centered technologies by connecting them to legal, technical, and business expertise.
The Howard Law Artificial Intelligence Initiative's Impact Foundry will create an accelerator to fill gaps in AI innovation by supporting underrepresented entrepreneurs focused on civil and human rights-centered AI. Additionally, it will help build AI centered in the data from underrepresented communities. Leveraging Howard University's strengths, it offers legal, financial, and strategic aid to those excluded from traditional tech ecosystems. This initiative demonstrates that diverse, rights-focused AI development is essential and commercially viable.
