✨ HYPE Innovation Night is almost here!⁠ ⁠ On October 29, we’ll gather at the new Arthur M. Blank U.S. Soccer National Training Center for HYPE Innovation Night 2026: The Human Algorithm—celebrating innovation, leadership…

and the possibilities that emerge when people remain at the center of progress.⁠ ⁠ At HYPE, we believe innovation is about more than what we create. It is also about who gets to create, who gets to lead, whose ideas are valued, and how we use our influence to create possibilities for those coming behind us.⁠ ⁠ That belief is at the heart of our Innovation Honors.⁠ ⁠ We are proud to recognize luminaries whose careers, leadership, innovative spirit, and commitment to others embody the possibilities we want our HYPE Scholars to see for themselves.⁠ ⁠ ✨ Shan Cooper — Founder & CEO, Journey Forward Strategies, LLC⁠ ✨ Andrea Miller — Founder & Lead System Strategist, Twelve Group⁠ ✨ Candace Mitchell — Co-Founder & CEO, MYAVANA⁠ ✨ Regenia R. Sanders — Managing Partner, EY Atlanta Office⁠ ✨ William Wesley — Senior Community Development, Delta Community Credit Union⁠ ⁠ These are not simply accomplished leaders we want our Scholars to admire from afar. Their journeys are evidence of what is possible.⁠ ⁠ And that is the continuum we celebrate at HYPE Innovation Night: honoring those who have helped shape what is possible while investing in the Scholars who will shape what comes next.⁠ ⁠ Because when we encounter a young girl at the beginning of her journey, none of us knows yet what we are witnessing. ❤️⁠ ⁠ Join us October 29 for scholar-led technology showcases, the Innovation Honors, the Scholar’s Choice Award, meaningful connection, and an opportunity to invest in the next generation of changemakers.⁠ ⁠ And we’re not finished. More extraordinary honorees will be announced soon. Join us https://secure.givelively.org/event/hope-for-youth-inc/hype-innovation-night-2026
