✊🏾💻 Very interesting read about the lack of Black entrepreneurs in Miami. In the article they highlight a few locally who are looking to make impact in this space including Ted Lucas. I had the pleasure last season of working with him and his team on a few initiatives and looking forward to continuing that this season. Maybe we take our Tech Tuesdays and dedicate one program to Blacks in Miami Tech? Anyone interested in ideating on some concepts feel free to DM me…would love to see these numbers increase. #blacktech #miamitech

The business will come and figure what success means.” (Therapy and good pp) - It’s about failure! (Fail forward) - Be obsessed about who your customers are and what they want !!
