NEW YORK, Oct. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Daymond John, the founder and CEO of FUBU and Co-Star of ABC's four-time Emmy Award winning show, Shark Tank, has the country buzzing about his forthcoming Black Entrepreneurs Day presented by Chase for Business which will stream live, for free this Saturday October 24th. Today, alongside Robinhood, the event unveils a new addition to the show - The Robinhood Roundtable Featuring Dwyane Wade.

"Since announcing the event, the response has been unyielding. In addition to providing viewers with an opportunity to both advance their education around entrepreneurship and be entertained from their homes, it's also made way to bring in new partners who want to be a part of advancing opportunities for our community, such as Robinhood," said Daymond. "With Robinhood's help, we are not only excited to add Dwyane Wade to the star-studded line-up, but to also expand the dialogue into financial literacy and investments." Robinhood's mission is to democratize finance for all, which the company achieves through offering intuitive and accessible tools for investors of the next generation.
