DLL Storify of #SXSW2017 Panel with Maya Beasley, Kofi Kankam, Julius Pryor, and Robert Murray -- Sunday 3/12/17

Last update: Sunday 3/12/17

SXSW convened a distinguished panel of experts -- Maya Beasley (The T10 Group), Kofi Kankam (Admit.me), Julius Pryor III (J Pryor Group, LLC), and Robert Murray -- who discussed "Diversity in Tech: Readiness to Recruitment"  




This panel focused on the readiness, recruitment, and retention of early to mid-career employees and entrepreneurs of color in the U.S. tech sector for an audience of key stakeholders. Critical solutions were offered to CEOs, CDOs, and investors, as well as to university administrators and non-profit leaders. The panel's experts explored and debated some of the challenges that hamper recruitment and retention efforts, and provided toolkits for organizations and individuals.

More information about each of the panelists can be found on pages linked to the discussion's event page.
