In 2022, the Digital Equity Accelerator set out to help address these injustices by pursuing a singular goal: to accelerate equity in the digital economy for underrepresented and marginalized populations worldwide. The Digital Equity Accelerator, an initiative of Aspen Institute, in collaboration with HP, fuels innovation and invests in non-profit leaders who are actively working to address the inequities that exist in technology access and use around the world.

There are dedicated groups accelerating digital equity for their communities around the world. Over the past four months, Aspen Digital has been training 7 groundbreaking nonprofits to scale their efforts to close the tech gap for marginalized and underserved populations. Get to know these outstanding organizations, and join us on October 7 for a virtual event to hear their stories.

On the heels of a four-month Digital Equity Accelerator, hosted by Aspen Digital in collaboration with HP Inc., this event highlighted the importance of digital inclusion and premiered the work of seven groundbreaking nonprofits – in the US, India, and Morocco – working to promote education, healthcare, and economic opportunity through digital innovation.
