Sean “Diddy” Combs is bringing his REVOLT Summit back to Atlanta “to celebrate black excellence and importance of hip hop.”
The three-day event, which runs from November 11 to November 13, is designed to educate and empower the Black leaders of the future.
“We’re excited to bring the REVOLT Summit back to Atlanta and celebrate the impact of Hip Hop globally,” Combs says in a statement. “My goal has always been to inspire the next generation of leaders and create a platform that provides them with real access and opportunity to learn from the best in the world.”
Offset from Migos, and Killer Mike are assisting Diddy in curating the event. The Summit will offer performances, educational panels, mentoring sessions, interactive workshops and more.
New components will include the Return on Culture Competition. The top 10 entrepreneurs will be matched with experts during a boot camp. Then, five entrepreneurs will be selected to present their business pitches to celebrity judges for prizes. Applications are now being accepted through October 15 at RevoltSummitPitch.com.
The “Be Heard” talent search will kick off on October 16 with a special HBCU Open Call for current students of Historically Black Colleges and Universities in Atlanta. Two winners will compete at the finals on November 11 at the Summit for a chance to win $10,000, plus an appearance on REVOLT’s Off Top show featuring Big Tigger and Rapsody.
Tickets for the summit are now on sale on the REVOLT website.
