Regina Ann Campbell on building capital solutions and how data determines success

This week, host David Ponraj talks to Regina Ann Campbell, President and CEO of Build Institute, an idea innovation hub based in Detroit, MI. Regina's approach to solving the biggest barriers to entrepreneurship draws from her 20 years of experience in economic development and entrepreneurship. To date, Regina has led teams and initiatives that provided access to $21.4M+ in funding and resources for minority small business owners. The two discuss why entrepreneurial success requires programs to support the “whole entrepreneur” and depends on access to more meaningful data.
