Building Inclusive Ecosystems: Reflections from HBCU@SXSW by Living Cities

Our final episode, Inclusive Ecosystems features Rodney Sampson from Opportunity Hub, Dell Gines from the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, Caterina Schwabb from NPX, and Ben Hect from Living Cities. Listen to learn how racial equity can be embedded into the process of creating a network of support for founders of color and the role that both private and institutional investors can play to accelerate this process.

Opportunity Hub (OHUB) is the leading future of work, startup entrepreneurship, early stage investment and multi-generational wealth creation for everyone, everywhere. OHUB is an official diversity, equity & inclusion partner of South by Southwest (SXSW).

This March, we joined OHUB in Austin for their signature program, HBCU@SXSW, where African American, Pan Asian, and Latinx students are sponsored to gain immersive exposure, interactive learning opportunities and direct access to paid summer internships and early career roles.
