Yaw Owusu-Boahen returns to SOM to share his experience after graduating, and his most recent role as Director of the CT Wealth Accelerator, an extrapreneurship endeavor bringing together multiple partners who are deeply invested in bridging the racial wealth gap in CT. Building on a government innovation providing "baby bonds" to children born under the poverty line, the Wealth Accelerator is testing new programs to support customers in leveraging existing resources to build generational wealth. He shares his ambitions for accelerating existing results, and the need to take risks to do so.
