Celebrate Juneteenth by building the future of Black creativity and innovation.
Think Tank Black is a dynamic, one-day summit hosted at the legendary Newark Symphony Hall, bringing together artists, tech leaders, entrepreneurs, and changemakers to explore the power of cultural ownership, equity in tech, and creative investment.
This year’s theme: The Black Creative Economy — where art, tech, and justice meet.
Expect a full day of dynamic panels, networking, and creative activations, including:
A keynote by Felicia Hatcher, CEO of Black Ambition
Panels on Black cultural ownership, beauty, tech, and media
A live AI Listening Lab mapping the Black founder experience in real time
A Pitch Competition with real funders and capital at stake
A Black Business Walk showcasing local entrepreneurs and creators in Newark’s Arts & Education District
Founded by visionary artist and entrepreneur Pharrell Williams, the Black Ambition Prize is a national initiative providing funding, mentorship, and strategic support to Black and Latinx founders. Since its launch, Black Ambition has awarded millions of dollars to help close the opportunity gap in innovation and entrepreneurship. At Think Tank Black, Felicia Hatcher will share how this work is creating access — and how Newark’s creative community can plug in.
