Episode description

The impact of inequity in access to capital is a perpetuation of socioeconomic disparities, hindering the growth and success of marginalized individuals and communities. This systemic imbalance further widens the wealth gap, limiting opportunities for upward mobility and stifling overall economic progress.

In today's episode, we engage in a thought-provoking conversation with Meralis Hood, the CEO of Entrepreneurship for All (EforAll), a non-profit organization with a mission to accelerate economic and social impact through inclusive entrepreneurship. Our exploration centers around how reshaping the execution of business investment can empower small businesses, creating a positive impact on communities.

Topics include:

• Why an accelerator program is at the core of EforAll’s efforts. 

• Why coachability and a dynamic mindset is so important for entrepreneurial success.

• Why EforAll's theory of change leads them to focus on small businesses.

• Why the EforAll’s success metrics are so much better than the US average
