Black Ambition vs theLitwork

Black Ambition is a nonprofit organization founded by Pharrell Williams to provide access and capital to Black, Hispanic, and HBCU-affiliated entrepreneurs. We do this through a national prize competition where we award up to 35 Prize Winners between $15k to $1M. This platform is dedicated to the Semifinalists in the 2023 Black Ambition Prize Competition! Download this app to unlock access to a top-tier mentorship program, access to funding opportunities, an engaging community that feels like your tribe, and so much more. “With Black Ambition, the goal is to help strengthen the pipeline of talented entrepreneurs and close the opportunity and wealth gaps derived from limited access to capital and resources.” -Pharrell Williams
