Akansha Dimri, Tech Funding News’ founder and editor-in-chief, has been named Diversity Role Model of the Year at the 11th edition of the Global Startup Awards.
The award is one of 13 global titles presented at the EU-Startups Summit in Valletta, Malta, held this week.
The Diversity Role Model award honours people who have helped make the startup ecosystem more inclusive. This mission is central to everything TFN stands for.
“I started Tech Funding News after noticing that diverse founders, investors, and teams in European tech were doing great work but not getting enough attention. What began as an observation turned into a publication, and then into a community,” says Dimri.
The Global Startup Awards is the largest independent platform for startups worldwide. Around 2,400 founders, investors, and media from across Europe attended the event, where Dimri took the stage on Thursday evening to collect her award.
This recognition reflects TFN’s DNA and the community it has built.
Dimri thanks everyone who voted, noting that the support of the TFN audience makes its mission possible. Congratulations also to all the other nominees, whose work in building a more inclusive startup ecosystem is crucial.
