$10,000 Lenovo Evolve Small Grants for Diverse-Owned Small Businesses Lenovo, Intel, and Microsoft partner with Goodie Nation to provide capital and support for US and Canadian CPG and Brick-and-Mortar startups.

In addition to non-dilutive capital, recipients of the initiative receive complimentary Lenovo laptops as well as wrap-around support from Goodie Nation in the form of accountability group sessions, warm introductions to corporate innovators and media as well as group therapy, 1:1 connections to advisors based on their individual needs, professional development sessions, and a platform to tell their stories and amplify their businesses.
