Mo Shabazz has a degree in Marketing from Howard University allowed me the opportunity to land an account manager position at Burrell Advertising in Chicago where I was able to gain priceless experience as a brand manager for Verizon, Toyota, Lexus and a variety of products under the Proctor and Gamble portfolio. That inspiration and like-mindedness led to the opportunity to work with startups like Upswing and manage brands like ATXinColor and DivInc; increasing the equity of each and thus allowing us to reach elevated heights.
In this episode we discuss:
- What are some of the gaps in the tech space that you have seen?
- How did DivInc begin and the purpose?
- How can non-tech people get involved in the startup space?
- How would you explain to our white peers the significance of the organization?
