Welcome to Episode 4 of Adweek’s new diversity and inclusion podcast, D&I TBD. This week, Streamlytics CEO Angela Benton joins us to discuss diversifying artificial intelligence, data brokerage and more.
Benton’s company recently introduced Clture, a data-ownership app for the black community that helps people monetize their digital footprint. But before founding Streamlytics in 2018—Insecure’s Issa Rae is an investment partner—Benton was already well-known as the founder of NewME, Silicon Valley’s first accelerator for minority tech entrepreneurs that helped raise over $47 million in capital.
On the pod, Benton riffs on how the latest diversity scandal at Google shows how the tech industry sometimes takes a step backward, as well as forward, in its slow march to inclusion.
