Joey Womack’s goal is to positively impact 1 billion people by the year 2039. Part startup coach, part super-connector, he is the Founder of Goodie Nation, a tech nonprofit that empowers everyone to play a role in using innovation to reduce disparities in education, environmental sustainability, financial access, health, and safety. He is also 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.
Joey was bitten by the entrepreneurial bug in 2002 when he launched digitalguestlist.com as a graduate student at Florida A&M University. He grew the site to 80,000 users, and advertised thousands of events for Fortune 500 companies, agencies, and high-profile promoters during special events like NBA All-Star Weekend, Super Bowl Weekend, and Essence Music Festival.
Joey received his MBA from Florida A&M University in the Spring of 2003, where he was also initiated into Alpha Phi Alpha, Fraternity, Inc.
