Atlanta is an emerging technology hub

The technology industry in Atlanta is rapidly growing, with numerous startups and innovation centers emerging in recent years. This growth is particularly beneficial for black people, who have historically been underrepresented in the tech sector. Many black entrepreneurs and technologists have established successful companies in Atlanta, such as Partpic, an image recognition software company founded by black entrepreneur Jewel Burks. However, to further grow and benefit black people, the industry needs to focus on increasing diversity in its workforce and investing in education and training programs for underrepresented communities. Additionally, access to capital is a key issue for black entrepreneurs, and the industry needs to work towards providing more opportunities for funding and support.
