WHY WE GATHER
At Accessible AI for All, our story begins with a simple truth: too many brilliant founders have been left out of the AI conversation. AAFA was founded to change that by creating a space where underrepresented innovators can learn, build, and thrive together.
We believe wisdom grows around a fire, not from a podium. AAFA is a village where learning is shared, voices are heard, and collaboration replaces competition. It’s a space for founders to connect, exchange knowledge, and spark change, together.
Our mission is to center the overlooked, close the access gap, and invite everyone into the future of AI through education, mentorship, and community.​​
When we gather, we grow. When we grow, we change the future.
OUR VALUES

OUR MISSION

We empower underrepresented founders with the knowledge, tools, and confidence to thrive in the evolving world of innovation and leadership. Through our learning paths, mentorship, and the spirit of our Village, we’re building a global community where founders gather around the firepit of knowledge, share their journeys, and co-create a more equitable future in tech.
