Looking back on some of the prophetic speeches by the illustrious Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., one can now start to see just how visionary this man was as we look around us, and see how successful young black entrepreneurs are becoming. For the encouragement of the next wave of future entrepreneurs, we have compiled some inspiring stories of a few that have overcome in a big way. The names included in this profile are far from the end of the story however, as technology and innovation provide more and more opportunities for the taking, more black businesses are springing up on a regular basis, and many of them are beginning to witness real and sustainable growth.
Farrah Gray is one of those success stories; cutting his entrepreneurial teeth before he even cut his adult teeth, Gray has been active in business for most of his young life. He is the youngest person (of any color or race) to have his own office on New York’s Wall Street — where he runs NE2W. He is also an accomplished author, speaker and investor who reaches back to help others achieve their dreams.
