    #BH5050 "INCLUSION FACTORS" Initiative

    BiTHOUSE’s “Inclusion Factors” initiative was created due to the growing trend of national conversations focusing on diversity amongst work teams due to the integration of technology.

    Inclusion has always been part of our USP.....

    BITHOUSE had been in the business of “diversity and inclusion” since 2010 under the umbrella of Strategic Diversity Group Inc. As organizations strive to "be digital" and innovate both internally and externally, the need for diversity and inclusion becomes more critical due to positive outcomes relating to ROI and diversified revenue streams. Currently, marketing taglines are being utilized relating to diversity, inclusion and equality amongst men and women, but very few brands, conferences and leadership teams have been able to successfully integrate sustainable diversity within their business models. BiTHOUSE can provide the diversity you need as it relates to startups, gender, skill and other variables which should go hand in hand with your acceleration, innovation and digitalization strategies. We have access to experts across the globe and can both implement and integrate diversity measurements and talent into your hiring practices, management teams, juries, conferences and funding processes.  

    Tech Connect ™

    In 2015, BiTHOUSE started focusing on inclusion factors as it related to European communities and the US entrepreneur / startup culture. Our team has had an opportunity to attend various hackathons, tech events, and conferences throughout the world and have realized a few things are missing. Elements typically missing are those which engage those who are not used to sharing their accomplishments. The "actions speak louder than words" approach is an honorable one, but communication is the key to building brand awareness.

     

    BiTHOUSE is here to help you! We look forward to helping organizations form strategic partnerships and expand their networks to enhance existing technology platforms and diversify current criteria currently utilized to assess success factors amongst the technology community.

  • We Focus On "Change Agents"

    We focus on "CHANGE AGENTS" because they are essential to the continued growth and sustainability of the Internet of Things (IOT).  These agents are usually disconnected from mainstream social and professional circles due to the lack of diversity amongst hiring managers, leadership teams and investment entities.  We are focused on the Internet of People (IoP) to collaborate and create technology solutions for tomorrow.

    BiTHouse cultivates "CHANGE AGENTS" by enabling individuals to tap into their unique skill sets, build confidence and generate interest in areas of STEAM.  We provide a safe environment for youth, women and minorities to share their ideas and create innovative technology solutions with the potential to impact the world in which we live. 

    1.4 Million

    IT will be one of the fastest-growing sectors of the U.S. economy adding nearly 1.4 million job openings by 2020. 

    34% Higher

    Companies with the highest representation of women on management teams have a 34% higher return on investment than do those with few or no women.

    57% of US

    By 2060 57% of the US population will be minorities. 

    1 in 5 Residents

    By 2060 1 in 5 residents will be 65+ with 56% of them being non-Hispanic white.

    FOUNDER

    Wilhelmina Jewell Sparks is the brainchild behind BiTHOUSE BRYK. She is a global business leader, investor, mentor, advisor and#inclusionhacker. While living in Germany, Jewell wanted to open a venue which cultivates networking, professionalism and partnerships amongst established founders, investors, business executives and government officials. 

     

    Jewell is originally from Wichita, Kansas and has lived in Pennsylvania, Japan, New York City and most recently San Francisco /Menlo Park (13 years) prior to moving to Germany. Her mission is to "minimize barriers to entry" by helping others to find, align, mentor, fund and adopt solutions founded by members of the EU, women and minorities. 

     

    Culture matters.  One must not believe that there is only one way to achieve success.  However, communication, networking and brand exposure are always part of the equation. This is why BiTHOUSE

    BRYK Berlin has been formed by Jewell, Carsten and Frank.  

     

    The goal of BiTHOUSE is to foster sustainable relationships amongst those who are capable of valuing their cultural traditions, yet understand the importance of exposure, co-creation and partnerships. We collaborate with various startup venues, accelerator programs, brands and leaders in order to "bridge the gap" by connecting the dots between old and new business models, influencers and brands.

    Bitcoin's blockchain backbone by default promotes inclusion. Bitcoin is a digital currency that is public, open-source and uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority or banks. Nobody owns or controls Bitcoin, everyone can take part. BiTHOUSE values inclusion, therefore Bitcoin and the technology behind are our token and secure solution of choice. We were partners of two of the first cryptocurrency conferences in 2014/15 and are early adopters of technologies that may be disruptive and diversify structured business models. Support founders and startups that we recommend by cryptocurrency funding mechanisms as well.

    BiTHouse has partnered with Many Mentors for our "Inclusion Factors" and "STEM Models" initiative in order to provide mentorship for STEM related content originating on the college level. Together we will work with several organizations to inspire youth, communities and professionals to pursue careers related to STEM as entrepreneurs, technologists and/or employees.

     

    ManyMentors is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2011 to inspire, encourage, and support underrepresented* students’ interest in pursuing science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields, and eventual entrance into the STEM workforce. From middle schoolers to young working professionals, we connect individuals to near-age mentors who can make opportunities in STEM become more visible, valuable & viable.

    BiTHouse has partnered with the founders of Test My Pitch in order to "Minimize Barriers to Entry" to prepare entrepreneurs and technologists for hackathons and pitch contests. Together we are on a mission to make sure more women and minorities are prepared to take the main stage and have an opportunity to obtain financing for their technology solutions.

     

    Test My Pitch is a community of entrepreneurs and business professionals who create, share, and offer feedback on each others idea pitches and self-introductions. You have a great business idea, you introduce yourself to others, you have to customize your message for a new audience, in other words...you have a story to tell.
