The Whitney M. Young Jr. Memorial Conference — hosted by the school's African American MBA program — invited Solo to participate in a discussion as part of the conferences emerging markets panel. Joined by friend of the pod and One of None CEO DeShone Kizer, Solo spoke of his experiences as a young, Black executive and dispelled advice on how students might parlay their talents and expertise into a leadership role like the one he carved out for himself.
