Northwestern Mutual yesterday announced the startup leaders joining the program for its second 2023 cohort, hosted in partnership with Madison-based accelerator gener8tor. It’s funded through a $20 million commitment from the financial services company to support Black entrepreneurs.
Craig Schedler, managing director of Northwestern Mutual’s Future Ventures investment fund, said “this next cohort of bright entrepreneurs will use the resources provided in this program to become leaders in their respective sectors.”
