How A Social Capital Project Gets The Attention Of Wall Street

Bevon Joseph, co-founder of the Greenwood Project, wants to create a different look for professionals in the finance industry. As a 20-year veteran in finance, he has found himself in rooms where he is the only minority. Together with his wife they want to bridge the gap between Wall Street and inclusivity. They launched the Greenwood Project to expose high-achieving minority students to career opportunities in the financial world. EQDerivatives’ Dallon Lewis looks at Joseph’s career journey, the benefit of showing minority students opportunities outside their environment, and why there is a need for more diversification in the industry.
