    Description:

    Stanford alumni created the $5 million Black Angel Technology Investment Fund (BATIF), which aims to combat the lack of diverse leadership in Silicon Valley's tech industry. BATIF will support startups with at least one black co-founder who either attends or has graduated from Stanford. BATIF expects to invest in 20 to 30 social media, e-commerce, artificial intelligence, virtual reality, digital media and healthcare tech companies -- from pre-revenue startups to businesses with $10 million valuations. The fund will make initial investments of up to $200,000 in each company, with follow-on investments of up to $2.5 million.
