Why Black Entrepreneurs Need Access To Patient Capital with Lyneir Richardson, Executive Director of the Rutgers Center for Urban Entrepreneurship & Economic Development (CUEED)

I share the inaugural episode of IRONBOUND Media's new podcast, "Black Entrepreneurs Survive And Thrive" or BEST. The BEST podcast is for impact investors, community leaders, and institutions, and committed to economic empowerment and support of Black Entrepreneurs in America, and who are willing to provide patient capital in the form of grants, or either low interest or interest-free loans.

My hope is that through The BEST Podcast, you’ll get a better understanding of the Black Entrepreneur Experience, and how through resilience, Black Entrepreneurs are continuing to create opportunities for themselves and their communities. We want you to understand the impact that patient capital can have on their businesses, and emphasize that more patient capital will allow more black entrepreneurs to Survive and Thrive.
