Championing Change: Dr. Paul Campbell on Empowering Innovators of Color

Brown Venture Group was actually a birth out of experience that I had with being an employer. I had two doctors, I had two masters, I had checked all the boxes, and that was the thing I kept on hearing. And I started to realize you know this story. And so I wanted to figure out how can I solve this problem.
Ever thought about the hurdles faced by entrepreneurs of color? In this episode of the 'Courageous Recovery Podcast', Randy Mortensen chats with Dr. Paul Campbell, co-founder of Brown Venture Group.

His journey started from witnessing the barriers in the corporate world and led to the birth of Brown Venture Group, aiming to invest in 'brown success'. Dr.
Campbell shares his experiences and the importance of building a culture of inclusivity and opportunity. One standout program from Brown Venture Group is the Lifestyle Champion Cohort.
