multi-faceted
initiative
launched
in
October 2020
that initially
focused
on

extended
to
BIPOC-owned to
help those hardest hit
by
COVID-19.
In
addition
to
the Investment Fund,
Comcast
RISE, which
stands
for
“Representation,
Investment,
Strength
and
Empowerment,”
provides
the
opportunity
for
BIPOC-owned,
small
businesses nationwide to
apply
for consulting,
media
and
creative
production
services
from
Effectv,
the
advertising
sales
division
of
Comcast
Cable,
or
technology
upgrades
from
Comcast
Business.
