About HBCU Battle of the Brains
HBCU Battle of the Brains LLC's mission is to address inequities in industries in which Black and brown representation is severely lacking. This is accomplished by creating and delivering compelling programming that not only brings top students and industry leaders together, but allows each entity to showcase its best self through industry-specific skills challenges (HBCU Battle of the Brains Competition, hybrid-hackathon, business cases, etc.), mentoring (HBCU office hours), and professional development (#ReadyToWork, etc.). We excel at showcasing the top business and STEM students that our nation's HBCUs have to offer while introducing this highly regarded talent to amazing companies and career paths.
