BGV Selects 25 Future Founders As The NextGen Student Visionaries

We're excited to announce the second cohort of the HBCU student visionaries joining our NextGen Program!

The BGV NextGen Program is designed to help young Black and Brown entrepreneurs launch their businesses by giving them access to various resources, including capital. The students will have an opportunity to learn from experts in business and entrepreneurship, participate in hands-on workshops such as pitch practice and gain access to capital for launching their businesses. We know that these students are ready to make a difference in the world—and we want to help them do that.

Meet The NextGen Crew

By harnessing the inherent talents of these HBCU students, we can simultaneously fill an often ignored need in our current business landscape while building a new generation of dynamic Black and Brown entrepreneurs. We're looking forward to bringing together these student visionaries from across the country and giving them access to resources that will help their businesses succeed.
