A New Institution for Black Entrepreneurs Collab Capital creates a growth solution for Black founders seeking capital, who value profitability, ownership, and optionality. A key pillar to solving the growing US racial wealth gap is business formation and growth in the Black community. In order to ensure more Black founded businesses have the resources they need to be successful, the ability to maintain majority ownership, and increase revenue, we’ve designed a new investment model which aligns our interests with those of the founders we support.

Our mission is to narrow the wealth gap by strategically recruiting, educating, training, and placing top HBCU students into lucrative careers within the Venture Capital & Tech ecosystem
