The company, Opportunity HUB (OHUB), which works with entrepreneurs and investors in technology to subvert racial bias and tackle poverty, partnered with the email and marketing firm
MailChimp to develop HBCU@SXSW, an initiative that brings African-American and Hispanic undergraduates to SXSW and introduces the usual conference-goers to these hidden Einsteins. The program is in its third year. This month, OHUB selected 125 undergraduates from 60 schools—out of more than 1,000 applicants representing 200 institutions—to attend this official SXSW event.

“The program aims to provide students with access to unknown spaces and firm recruitment opportunities through a fully immersive experience with the interactive technology on display at SXSW,” says OHUB’s website. According to the company, in 2017, 90 percent of the students who attended HBCU@SXSW received paid summer internships, apprenticeships, or full-time positions in the tech field.
