BROOKLYN, N.Y. - TelAve -- New York City was built on hustle, and Hustle Hive is making sure BIPOC entrepreneurs own the future of business. Enter the Smart & Connected Communities Initiative—a game-changing movement bringing AI, smart tech, and funding tools directly to the culture.

For too long, our communities have been locked out of opportunities, capital, and the digital revolution. The future of business is automated, data-driven, and tech-powered—and we're making sure we're not just in the game, but that we're leading it.

Why It Matters

This initiative is about leveling up, taking ownership, and making sure NYC's hustlers, creators, and innovators aren't left behind.

The Time Is Now

From Jim Crow, to redlining, to the crack epidemic, and now, digital discrimination, we've seen how systems work against us. This initiative is about rewriting that story. The Smart & Connected Communities Initiative will bring together tech leaders, policymakers, and community builders to create real, lasting impact for BIPOC entrepreneurs.

"Hustling is in our DNA—now we're making it smart, connected, and built to last," says Monica Rodriguez, Founder of Hustle Hive.

Get Involved

We're calling on innovators, investors, and community leaders to build with us. NYC's next wave of business leaders is here— let's make sure they have the tools to win.
