By day, Dandridge Floyd works as assistant superintendent of Human Resources for Oakland Schools in Michigan. But by night and on Saturdays, she’s engaged in an effort to learn how to buy and run a business.
Dandridge, who has spent the past 15 years in a variety of HR and legal jobs, is a participant in New Majority Capital’s (NMC) current bETA (BIPOC Entrepreneurship through Acquisition) accelerator cohort. Through bETA, run by New Majority Capital Foundation, and NMC’s impact funds, the impact investing firm aims to help a critical mass of people of color create inter-generational wealth by purchasing a business, instead of starting one from scratch.
