Join us for Impact and try out our new lunchtime format. We continue to bring you meaningful conversations with remarkable leaders in a more dynamic format. And did we mention lunch is included?

This week we talk with Joey Womack, Founder and CEO, Goodie Nation.

Joey Womack, the founder of Goodie Nation, is a part entrepreneur coach and part super-connector. Since starting Goodie Nation in 2014, Womack is on track to impact a few million people by working with the likes of CARE USA, Google, NetHope, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, Ford Motor Company, Coca-Cola, UNCF, Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation, Village Capital, and the White House HBCU Initiative. 

Goodie Nation is a tech nonprofit that accelerates relationships to influencers, large companies, and investors/funders for the next generation of promising diverse founders and social entrepreneurs. Joey is also the Founder of Amplify 4 Good, a mission-driven agency that uses rapid problem-solving to help large companies, nonprofits, and government agencies create social impact, and Co-Founder of Atlanta Black Tech.

In 2012, Womack was bitten by the entrepreneurial bug when he launched digitalguestlist.com as a graduate student at Florida A&M University. The site grew to 80,000 subscribers/users, and advertised thousands of events for Fortune 500 companies, agencies, and high-profile promoters during special events weekends like NBA All-Star, Super Bowl, and Essence Music Festival. He also used innovative digital marketing strategies to execute events in the Southeast for brands such as Crown Royal, Ciroc, Smirnoff, Coors Light, Warner Bros., and Hennessy.

Please join us for a lunch reception after the talk.
