关于我们
Our history. In 2013, Sampson cofounded Opportunity Hub as a follow up to the highly successful Kingonomics’ book release and large-scale conferences in Atlanta, GA and Washington, DC. OHUB scaled quickly to become the leading multi-campus coworking space, entrepreneurship center and tech hub featuring over 300 events a year, a startup pre-accelerator, coding boot-camp and scholarship initiative and angel investing platform for founders from underestimated and under-tapped communities. Over 15,000 people engaged with OHUB each year. Programs like CodeStart, Techhire, #YesWeCodeFund and 100 Black Angels were pioneered and implemented. Today, OHUB is the definitive future of work, opportunity and wealth creating platform to ensure that everyone, everywhere has early exposure to the tech, startup and venture ecosystem; in demand technology education, training and careers; vetted entrepreneurial support programs; and investment opportunities . This is driven by our growing community of thousands of college students, young professionals, founders and new investors in cities, colleges and universities across America and beyond. For enterprises, OHUB is a supplier and partner to over 50 tech companies, major corporations, high growth startups and venture funds and growing. Current national initiatives and programs include OHUB@Experiences, OHUB@Campus, HBCU@SXSW and DEIS, a new strategy, service and future software platform to operationalize diversity, equity and inclusion across the major divisions of growing enterprises. For municipalities, OHUB launched OHUB@Cities to create and sustain inclusive in-demand workforces and entrepreneurial ecosystems in the form of public private partnerships to disrupt income inequality, poverty and the racial wealth gap while increasing a region's economic mobility and growth for all its constituents. Collaboratively, we persevere to ensure equity in the future of work and 4th industrial revolution for everyone, everywhere.

The response to Hurricanes Helene and Milton highlights a growing trend: grassroots mutual aid groups are often the first and most effective responders in the face of disasters. But these efforts reveal deeper systemic issues—disinformation, bureaucratic slowdowns, and a lack of preparedness for the escalating frequency of climate crises. https://ow.ly/qyZF50Uent3
