Dr. Grant Warner views the challenge of diversity in STEM and entrepreneurship as an opportunity for inclusion, because what many refer to as a pipeline problem he believes it is more accurately reflected as a pathway issue.
He discusses his educational journey and how he has leveraged his mechanical engineering PhD to have a voice and fuel his entrepreneurial mindset and ventures.
In this episode, we discuss the National Science Foundation I-Corps program and Black Tech Ventures, an organization he co-founded to empower African American tech-innovators and startup entrepreneurs and to foster a culture of entrepreneurship at historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs).
