HBCU ATHLETE MOVEMENT SUMMIT
Bringing HBCU student athletes together to learn how to build their personal brands, capitalize on their name, image, and likeness (NIL), and use their influence to change their lives, communities, and the HBCU landscape.
ABOUT THE EVENT
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND
If you're an HBCU student athlete, this is a conference created with you in mind. Because there isn't a conference specifically for HBCU student athletes, we wanted to create a space for you to learn and grow, and feel comfortable being yourself. This isn't going to be your typical conference. We are curating our sessions and the conference experience as a whole based on what you, as a HBCU student athlete, finds important and are interested in. So, make sure you're in the building because this is an experience you don't want to miss!
