The ALIVE Podcast Network, the media-tech company that's amplifying Black voices and actively contributing to a more inclusive media landscape, announced today, that its founder, Angel N. Livas is featured on Inc.’s 2024 Female Founders List. This prestigious list honors a bold group of 250 women whose innovations and ideas are shaping the world into a better place.
"Being a part of Inc.’s 2024 Female Founders List is a tremendous honor," said Livas. "It validates the importance of our mission to stimulate the Black creative economy, while amplifying their voices."
Each year, Inc. editors review thousands of applications highlighting female founders who are challenging the status quo and tackling some of the world’s biggest problems. The list features women who have overcome challenges and lifted those around them, while leading impactful organizations across the country.
“The past year, for many, will go down as one of the hardest ever—between a funding freeze and ad-spending pull back. The female founders on this year’s list are a testament to what triumph over adversity looks like," said Diana Ransom, Inc. Executive Editor.
The ALIVE Podcast Network is currently raising its seed round after successfully raising a half a million dollar pre-seed. The two-year old, Techstars portfolio company, powered by JP Morgan, currently has thousands of users on their proprietary app (available in iOS and Android) and millions of listeners. Just last month the network added five new shows, bringing their line-up to just under four dozen podcasts. Listeners can find various genres, from the true crimes hit podcast "No Tears for Black Girls," to "Conversations in the Champagne Room with Charrisse Jackson-Jordan," from the hit BRAVO show Real Housewives of Potomac.
Livas being included on the Inc. Female Founders List is a testament to her vision and the company' commitment to being a one-stop-shop for lovers of Black culture and a safe space for its creatives to authentically share their stories.
