The America21 Project is dedicated to changing the economic narrative across urban America, developing inclusive economic strategies and connecting economically disconnected sectors to regional innovation clusters from the pipeline of STEM education to the productivity of high-growth entrepreneurship.
The America21 Project is a national nonprofit dedicated to changing the economic narrative across Black and Urban America.
America21 promotes an Inclusive Competitiveness economic strategy in a fast-paced, knowledge-based, tech-driven global innovation economy.
America21 promotes an economic framework from the pipeline of education to the productivity of entrepreneurship based on three core pillars of the Innovation Economy:
STEM Education
(science, technology, engineering and math)
High-Growth Entrepreneurship
Access to Capital and Capital Formation
America21 seeks to connect economically disconnected communities and sectors with regional innovation clusters to strengthen the economic competitiveness of the nation by investing in all of America's talent pools.
This is a bold and historic declaration to a nation that has yet to rally around investing and supporting the success of its Black boys.
Our approach is to inform and educate leaders and influencers: i.e. policymakers, educators, professionals, business and community leaders, investors, philanthropists, clergy, pro athletes and celebrities.
We believe too many leaders and influencers of America's Black boys are disconnected from the knowledge and networks that drive the 21st century innovation economy.
The result is a generation of lost, confused and angry youth who grow into lost, confused and angry men. They, in turn, continue to perpetrate the cyclical problem. The goal of our campaign is awareness and intervention.
So, we focus on the adults. The leaders. Those in positions of power and influence. And it is these folks we call to gather at our summits. It is these leaders and influencers we call upon to support our efforts.
Our campaign speaks of the problems and challenges, but only as the opening toward introducing and implementing solutions. Our summits Introduce unique visionary frameworks and call for a coalition of committed collaborators to work with us in implementing solutions that will disrupt the status quo and leverage today's innovative constructs, networks, technologies and opportunities to produce exponential (versus incremental) progress. The result is what we call Inclusive Competitiveness. The process is what we call Pipeline2Productivity.
Our boys are talented. They are creative. They are smart. They hold within an inherent ingenuity that, if sufficiently tapped, could unleash a torrent of innovative entrepreneurs, job growth and generational wealth creation that benefits the overall economic competitiveness of every local region and the global economic competitiveness of the nation.
Will you join us in making an investment in America’s Black Boys?
We believe it is a 21st century national economic imperative.
We hope you agree.

Nearly every major metro region in America is experiencing great economic stress. Amazingly, stakeholders in every region are disconnected, disjointed and unable to effectively communicate. There exists no common vision, strategy or framework for including and empowering all of the region's residents.
Local innovation ecosystems are fragmented, with leaders operating in their own independent silos. And historically underserved and disconnected peoples and communities are so far behind they are losing ground daily as the explosive growth of innovation hubs and the startup culture threatens to leave them behind permanently.
The Innovation Economy Epiphany Workshop introduces the BIG PICTURE in a way that all audiences can clearly understand. In this workshop, the key issues of a common local vision, common understanding, common strategies, inclusive frameworks and open collaboration are threaded throughout.
But how do we develop a common vision, common understanding, and a strategic approach toward economic inclusion and increased regional competitiveness?
How do we empower those who have fallen far behind to not only participate in the innovation economy but become productive in job growth and wealth creation?
And how can we identify and scale up what's working in each local region?
What role does education play in the "economic future" of each region?
And how do we get local stakeholders to break down the walls of competitive silos to collaborate for the benefit of each generation?
This workshop is an innovative approach to aligning the disjointed, connecting the disconnected and empowering individuals, communities and regions to develop a sustainable pipeline to productivity process that increases job growth and regional economic competitiveness through the framework of local innovation, inclusion and impact.
You will emerge from this workshop with a significantly greater understanding of how your local innovation ecosystem works, your role in it and an understanding of how you can be part of the solution to the challenges your region faces.
This workshop is step one of a process that will open your eyes to a 21st century economic imperative and national vision of Inclusive Competitiveness. It is a must-attend event for anyone concerned about the economic future of their community, region and state.

Dr. Andy Khawaja is an inspiring figure in the realm of technology and innovation, with a strong proficiency in entrepreneurship and philanthropy. A decade-spanning reputation precedes him, as he has garnered recognition as a highly publicized philanthropist and world-renowned entrepreneur, featured in over 100 publications for his contributions to technology, society and economic growth.
ScaleUp Partners is America's only economic development consultancy focused on inculcating Inclusive Competitiveness: improving the competitive performance of underrepresented populations in the innovation economy.
Our approach relies upon three priorities:
1. Changing the economic narrative across underrepresented populations in urban and rural regions
2. Inculcating Inclusive Competitiveness policies and strategies in regions across the U.S.
3. Connecting economically disconnected communities to local innovation ecosystems and economic opportunity
We believe:
STEAM education (science, technology, engineering, arts and math) is a critical educational prerequisite to access the dual pipelines of productivity:
A. High-wage, tech-based workforce
B. High-growth, tech-driven entrepreneurship
ScaleUp Partners assists regions in achieving their economic competitiveness goals through development of Inclusive Competitiveness strategies and frameworks.
We work with educational institutions, foundations, policymakers, elected leadership, tech-based economic development organizations, community development organizations, small businesses, entrepreneurs, funders and equity investors, and regional development organizations nationwide.

Issues of race in America can be sensitive and uncomfortable. Most people avoid or limit them. This practice has unfortunately limited our knowledge of racial issues and undermined our ability to empower youth with empathetic understanding and capacity to redesign, reshape and reconstruct society for a 21st century multicultural Inclusive America. This workshop offers a unique insight with resources and tools for participants to become comfortable with issues of race and empowered to teach others.
Parents and educators will find this workshop on history, race and the US struggle for inclusion filled with insightful new information, practical tools and resources that empower youth of all races to redesign, reshape & reconstruct the America they want to see in the 21st century for a multicultural society.

(Inclusive Competitiveness: empowering underrepresented populations to compete in the innovation economy)
The top priorities of the nation in every presidential election are the economy and jobs. This election is no exception. But summit asks the question, who will create the jobs of tomorrow? The answer is surprising. Minority entrepreneurs (i.e. women, black and Hispanic Americans) represent the fastest rate of entrepreneurial growth in America. These prospective job creators remain disconnected from valuable resources they need to scale up their efforts and produce successful businesses that grow jobs. This summit introduces solutions to this economic problem.

What is Inclusive Competitiveness and why is it possibly the defining issue of a 21st century generation? The term competitiveness is ubiquitous in its use among economic development planners and policymakers, yet virtually unheard of outside of sports. But the demographic shifts of the nation require raised awareness of why economic competitiveness must now become more inclusive.
Journalism That Matters and the University of Oregon Agora Journalism Center have partnered with Mike Green, co-founder of ScaleUp Partners, to produce the first-ever Conversation on Inclusive Competitiveness (empowering underrepresented populations to compete in the Innovation Economy). The intersection of important community issues and the journalists who tell these stories creates quite a conversation around what's important to communities and what appears in media (or doesn't).

Currently there are no website or exchange that allow buying or selling of pi coins..
But you can still easily sell pi coins, by reselling it to exchanges/crypto whales interested in holding thousands of pi coins before the mainnet launch.
Who is a pi merchant?
A pi merchant is someone who buys pi coins from miners and resell to these crypto whales and holders of pi..
This is because pi network is not doing any pre-sale. The only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners and pi merchants stands in between the miners and the exchanges.

what is the future of Pi Network currency.DOT TECH
The future of the Pi cryptocurrency is uncertain, and its success will depend on several factors. Pi is a relatively new cryptocurrency that aims to be user-friendly and accessible to a wide audience. Here are a few key considerations for its future:
Message: @Pi_vendor_247 on telegram if u want to sell PI COINS.
1. Mainnet Launch: As of my last knowledge update in January 2022, Pi was still in the testnet phase. Its success will depend on a successful transition to a mainnet, where actual transactions can take place.
2. User Adoption: Pi's success will be closely tied to user adoption. The more users who join the network and actively participate, the stronger the ecosystem can become.
3. Utility and Use Cases: For a cryptocurrency to thrive, it must offer utility and practical use cases. The Pi team has talked about various applications, including peer-to-peer transactions, smart contracts, and more. The development and implementation of these features will be essential.
4. Regulatory Environment: The regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies is evolving globally. How Pi navigates and complies with regulations in various jurisdictions will significantly impact its future.
5. Technology Development: The Pi network must continue to develop and improve its technology, security, and scalability to compete with established cryptocurrencies.
6. Community Engagement: The Pi community plays a critical role in its future. Engaged users can help build trust and grow the network.
7. Monetization and Sustainability: The Pi team's monetization strategy, such as fees, partnerships, or other revenue sources, will affect its long-term sustainability.
It's essential to approach Pi or any new cryptocurrency with caution and conduct due diligence. Cryptocurrency investments involve risks, and potential rewards can be uncertain. The success and future of Pi will depend on the collective efforts of its team, community, and the broader cryptocurrency market dynamics. It's advisable to stay updated on Pi's development and follow any updates from the official Pi Network website or announcements from the team.

how to sell pi coins in South Korea profitably.DOT TECH
Yes. You can sell your pi network coins in South Korea or any other country, by finding a verified pi merchant
What is a verified pi merchant?
Since pi network is not launched yet on any exchange, the only way you can sell pi coins is by selling to a verified pi merchant, and this is because pi network is not launched yet on any exchange and no pre-sale or ico offerings Is done on pi.
Since there is no pre-sale, the only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners. So a pi merchant facilitates these transactions by acting as a bridge for both transactions.
How can i find a pi vendor/merchant?

USDA Loans in California: A Comprehensive Overview.pptxmarketing367770
USDA Loans in California: A Comprehensive Overview
If you're dreaming of owning a home in California's rural or suburban areas, a USDA loan might be the perfect solution. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) offers these loans to help low-to-moderate-income individuals and families achieve homeownership.
Key Features of USDA Loans:
Zero Down Payment: USDA loans require no down payment, making homeownership more accessible.
Competitive Interest Rates: These loans often come with lower interest rates compared to conventional loans.
Flexible Credit Requirements: USDA loans have more lenient credit score requirements, helping those with less-than-perfect credit.
Guaranteed Loan Program: The USDA guarantees a portion of the loan, reducing risk for lenders and expanding borrowing options.
Eligibility Criteria:

how can I sell pi coins after successfully completing KYCDOT TECH
Pi coins is not launched yet in any exchange 💱 this means it's not swappable, the current pi displaying on coin market cap is the iou version of pi. And you can learn all about that on my previous post.
RIGHT NOW THE ONLY WAY you can sell pi coins is through verified pi merchants. A pi merchant is someone who buys pi coins and resell them to exchanges and crypto whales. Looking forward to hold massive quantities of pi coins before the mainnet launch.
This is because pi network is not doing any pre-sale or ico offerings, the only way to get my coins is from buying from miners. So a merchant facilitates the transactions between the miners and these exchanges holding pi.
I and my friends has sold more than 6000 pi coins successfully with this method. I will be happy to share the contact of my personal pi merchant. The one i trade with, if you have your own merchant you can trade with them. For those who are new.
Message: @Pi_vendor_247 on telegram.
I wouldn't advise you selling all percentage of the pi coins. Leave at least a before so its a win win during open mainnet. Have a nice day pioneers ♥️

Currently pi network is not tradable on binance or any other exchange because we are still in the enclosed mainnet.
Right now the only way to sell pi coins is by trading with a verified merchant.
What is a pi merchant?
A pi merchant is someone verified by pi network team and allowed to barter pi coins for goods and services.
Since pi network is not doing any pre-sale The only way exchanges like binance/huobi or crypto whales can get pi is by buying from miners. And a merchant stands in between the exchanges and the miners.
I will leave the telegram contact of my personal pi merchant. I and my friends has traded more than 6000pi coins successfully
