“This is an industry that has been built on relationships and one of the barriers to entry we see with the true social equity applicants is not having a seat at the right tables… We aren’t looking for handouts, but more so demanding the equitable opportunity to do the work and prove ourselves.”
— Candace Clark, co-founder of LinkUp and CCRO of Social Equity Empowerment Network
