3:24Now PlayingGoogle is helping Black-owned businesses reach success. Jewel Burks, head of Google for Startups, joins "BNC Live" with Laverne McGee to discuss the program and Google's $5 million commitment to small Black-owned businesses. The program is not taking equity from the funding, and it is specifically for business funding and credits across Google services. "It's important because we know Black-owned businesses represent one of the fastest-growing demographics of businesses in our country, but at the same time represents less than one percent of venture funding going to Black-led companies," Burks said.
