On January 10, 2025, we’ll gather virtually to hear from a dynamic lineup of speakers, including HBCU alumni and allies, as they share their journeys into angel investing. These conversations will highlight what’s possible when we reimagine funding for Black-led companies and explore how collective power can drive equity and opportunity in our communities. Many of our speakers’ journeys began at HBCUs like Philander Smith University, Hampton University, Bowie State University, Clark Atlanta University, Morehouse College, Spelman College, University of Maryland Eastern Shore, and Jackson State University. Their stories are a testament to the transformative power of these institutions, and we hope this summit will inspire more HBCU alumni and allies to join the movement of building wealth and creating impact. This event is more than a conference—it’s a call to action. A chance to learn, connect, and reimagine the future of investing. Whether you’re new to angel investing or already on your journey, this summit is an opportunity to: • Gain actionable insights from seasoned investors. • Learn directly from HBCU-affiliated founders and entrepreneurs. • Explore how investing can create wealth and drive meaningful change.
