Rise empowers underrepresented groups through two dynamic channels: 1) our flagship event, the Rise Up Annual Summit, is a nonprofit event funded by our sales that provides resources and legal education to underrepresented groups in Western countries. 2) Our innovative E-commerce platform Rise Market, champions marginalized communities by connecting brands that have been verified for diversity, in luxury fashion, art, and lifestyle, with a vibrant community of design lovers, curators, and the wider public.

As part of our commitment to transparency and accountability, all brands featured on our platform are required to have 25%+ of diverse employment, with people of color in senior leadership. This is essential in maintaining the integrity of our mission. Together, we’re shaping an inclusive world that celebrates the profound value of diversity, creativity, and the rich tapestry of unique perspectives within our global community.
