A THINK SPACE FOR BLACK INNOVATORS MVMT50 is a coalition of Black thought leaders committed to sus-tained and systematic improvement in employment diversity, cul-tural representation and leadership development in the innovation, technology and digital sectors. MVMT50 represents a dimension of the 21st Century’s civil rights movement, with intent to expand opportunity, elevate the value of diversity and disrupt the tradition-al culture and practices associated with the innovation sector. Our partners and participants gather annually during South By South-west (SXSW) Interactive to connect, collaborate and build consensus around disruptive and innovative solutions to empower and elevate Black thought leadership.
BUILD COHESIONThe conversation and consequences of diversity and inclusion deficiencies across the technology sector influence a wide variety of industry sectors; from large Fortune 500 companies and small, local businesses, to the service providers that keep tech companies running and relevant. Seeing the needle move requires cohesion on priorities and the use of resources amongst these community mem-bers. MVMT50’s partnership with SXSW, “the most important inter-active event in the world” (CNET), is a conduit to build cohesion and cooperation amongst the many needed voices. SXSW Interactive is where we connect, collaborate and create consensus on how to ele-vate and empower our individual and collective spaces of influence.

DEFINE THE CONVERSATIONWhile conversations and efforts surrounding diversity shortcomings in the technology and digital space have increased, systemic and sustainable solutions continue to be fragmented and ineffective. MVMT50 is a community of resources that serves to centralize conversations and efforts to ensure a comprehensive approach to diversify the tech industry, driven by the insights and the intellectual capital of Black thought leaders.
SUSTAIN ACTION SXSW serves as MVMT50’s annual convening of thought leaders, advocates and practitioners. Programming and information shared throughout the four-day festival serve to better equip leaders to lead cooperative action in their communities throughout the year. As a part of “the movement” participants have access to the many efforts and resources being developed in this space.

Today’s American mainstream is rapidly changing, and that change can be attribut-ed, in part, to the growth and activities of African-Americans in the marketplace. Social media and the Internet have be-come go-to communications platforms for African-American stories and content. Blacks have shifted the conversation about civic and social justice–drawing national and even world attention to events led by everyday people with a passion to bring about change.

PITCH BLACK targets African American female individuals, businesses and non-profits in need of start-up funding and mentoring to take their idea to new heights.
Pitch Black was designed to create a launch pad to equip promising entrepreneurs with the tools needed to develop their businesses. In preparation for the contest, each finalist is carefully paired with a seasoned entrepreneur and pitch coach that can help them refine their pitch and ensure that the business value proposition is clearly conveyed for future investment opportunities.
With African American women at the forefront of the women’s movement, MVMT50 chose to shine a light on this powerful group of women by making them the focus of this year’s competition.
