Science Policy-Savvy Biomedical Engineer | Driving Inclusive Innovation in Emerging Technologies | HBCU Alum
The tech industry thrives on innovation and diverse perspectives, and as an HBCU graduate, we are critical to this ecosystem. Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) have been nurturing brilliant minds and producing leaders who are driving innovation and excellence in tech. HBCUs contribute nearly $15 billion annually to the U.S. economy and produce a large percentage of Black engineers and scientists. For example, 42% of Black engineers and 47% of Black women engineers are HBCU graduates. Despite being historically underfunded, these institutions continue to excel in fostering top talent in the tech sector. At RenderATL (Render Atlanta) 2024, the spirit of opportunity and access is at the forefront. HBCU graduates bring unique perspectives, rich experiences, and unparalleled talent to the table. Their contributions are vital in shaping a more inclusive and dynamic tech landscape. If you are looking for your next leaders, community builders, and role models, then let’s support and uplift HBCU grads at RenderATL 2024!
