As President of Bank of America Austin, I get to focus on the business and societal issues affecting Central Texas. I oversee the bank’s work connecting individuals, families, and businesses to resources that make their financial lives better from San Marcos to Georgetown. Through social responsibility efforts, I’m charged with helping strengthen economic opportunity and building strong communities, which are essential to Austin’s recovery and growth. These efforts, like funding workforce development and education, partnering with organizations like Foundation Communities and PeopleFund, and providing masks to small businesses and child care workers allows us to all come together as neighbors and partners toward a better Austin.
To educate and elevate women business owners, Bank of America partnered with the BRIMM, a business coaching and mentorship program for women entrepreneurs, for their annual retreat in Austin, Texas. As part of event programming, the BRIMM Retreat featured a panel discussion with multiple Bank of America executives sharing business trends and insights, specifically around access to capital, a common struggle that women business owners face.
Austin is emerging as one of technology’s most dynamic hubs, and many of the startups flourishing in and around the city are headed by women, Black and Hispanic-Latino founders. But these entrepreneurs often find that securing the early-stage capital they need can be an enormous barrier to success, which is why nonprofit DivInc makes direct grants to new tech companies with underrepresented founders.
At Bank of America, we believe in the power of the arts to help economies thrive, educate and enrich societies, and create greater cultural understanding. That’s why we’re helping the arts flourish in communities across the globe.
