Introducing the Innovator Pitch

The Black Wealth Connect Innovators Pitch 2026 is being introduced as a new platform designed to spotlight founders with innovative and scalable businesses that drive ownership and long term economic empowerment. Taking place live at the Black Wealth Connect Summit on June 27, 2026, the Innovators Pitch creates a powerful opportunity for entrepreneurs to present their vision on a major stage.

Open to founders across all industries including tech, finance, creative, consumer, and social impact, the Innovators Pitch follows a competitive selection process that leads to four innovators being chosen to pitch live in front of investors, industry leaders, and the wider Black Wealth Connect community.

Selected innovators will receive pitch preparation and stage readiness support ahead of the Summit, ensuring they are confident and clear when communicating their ideas. Beyond the live pitch, participants gain valuable exposure, credibility, and access to meaningful connections that can extend beyond the event.

Rooted in Black Wealth Connect’s mission to strengthen ownership and create pathways to generational wealth, the Innovators Pitch is designed to elevate ideas with the power to shape the future of business.
