3:00 Leveraging SXSW Online 2021 to build your network

When it comes to networking, Opportunity Hub (OHUB) CEO Rodney Sampson says it’s not just about who you know — it’s the depth of your connections that make the difference in your path towards success. As a Black tech entrepreneur, investor and ecosystem developer himself with more than 20 years of experience, Rodney’s OHUB platform has partnered with SXSW by helping thousands of Black, Latinx and Indigenous people secure internships or full-time employment in their field. Through the power of networking, the simple act of investing your time to provide value to others will naturally impact every aspect of your business, including recruiting. For small business owners looking to tap into the Black community, Rodney says it’s important to understand the various affinity groups where you can invest in relationships to build both a consumer and team base — from HBCUs to civil rights groups and beyond. With SXSW 2021 going online, it's critical entrepreneurs leverage the tools and resources available to make great first impressions and build connections digitally.
