3 Black-owned Tech Companies That are Pure Genius

3 Black-owned Tech Companies That are Pure Genius

Sometimes an idea makes so much sense and is so useful that it can only be described as genius. Here are 3 that inarguably fall into that category.

Calendly – the ubiquitous scheduling tool that no busy executive or business development professional can live without. Letting someone put time on your calendar during blocks that you designate saves a dozen back-and-forth emails, and the time and frustration that can accompany trying to coordinate calendars.

Scholly – A search engine for college scholarships that has helped students win more than $100 million by simplifying and consolidating the search for available opportunities. After founder Christopher Gray spent 7 months researching and applying for his own scholarships, he utilized the vast knowledge that he acquired to streamline the process for others.

EcoText – this startup has a mission that focuses on education, economy and environment. Working with textbook publishers to offer digital textbooks that can be purchased in sections or their entirety reduces the eye-watering cost of printed books and saves them from ending up in a landfill. Collaborative capabilities are a further value-add. Maybe Daymond John could open a few doors for these guys!?
