EP 262 Closing the Racial and Gender Wealth Gap via Small Business Ownership

Startup Life Show with Ande Lyons

You don’t have to come up with a terrific idea to become an entrepreneur. You can buy and scale an already established business!
Our guest, Allegra Stennett, is the Co-Founder of New Majority Capital, an impact investing firm that addresses the racial and gender wealth gaps in the United States by providing training and capital for BIPOC and women entrepreneurs to buy and scale existing small businesses.
Prior to launching NMC, Allegra completed an MBA at MIT Sloan School of Management and an EdM in Education Policy & Management at Harvard Graduate School of Education.
After graduating at Andrews University, Allegra was a commercial and investment banker at J.P. Morgan for 5 years, where she covered a variety of multi-billion dollar client relationships in the Healthcare, Industrials, Oil & Gas, and Nonprofit sectors; launched a second language program to prepare 5,000 tri-state employees for expat assignments; and was the only person in her banking cohort to personally close a $100 million transaction.
