Our Mission, Vision & Impact

About Us

Future Gen 180 exists because talent is universal, but opportunity is not. While STEM fields explode with growth, minority communities remain locked out of these life-changing careers.

The Hard Facts

  • STEM jobs pay 26% more than non-STEM positions

  • These roles are projected to grow twice as fast as other sectors

  • Yet minorities make up less than 10% of the STEM workforce despite being 40% of the total U.S. population

This isn't just unfair—it's unsustainable.

Companies with diverse teams outperform their competitors by 35%. The innovation economy needs diverse perspectives. And our communities deserve access to the careers that are shaping tomorrow.

Our approach is simple but revolutionary

  1. INSPIRE young minds through exposure to cutting-edge STEM concepts and role models who look like them

  2. EDUCATE through fully-funded bootcamps, workshops, and degree programs designed for real-world application

  3. PLACE our graduates directly into internships and careers through our network of 200+ corporate partner

Unlike theoretical initiatives, we measure our success in life-changing job offers and salary increases.
