The Thurgood Marshall College Fund (TMCF) Innovation and Entrepreneurship (I&E) Division in partnership with the National Basketball Association (NBA) announce the launch of “Innovate the Future,” a one-and-a-half-day business competition for students attending publicly-supported Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). Ideal applicants are innovative and entrepreneurial-minded HBCU student leaders ready to change the world through business and technology.
