Offering a fully immersive experience, this year’s Summit will feature exclusive live viewings of REVOLT’S hit series, including Assets Over Liabilities with Rashad Bilal and Troy Millings, Big Facts, Drink Champs, the Rap Radar podcast, and more.

“The REVOLT Summit is coming back bigger and better than ever with the goal of inspiring the next generation of cultural leaders to understand that the time is now to achieve your dreams, change your life, and more importantly change the world,” said Sean “Diddy” Combs, Chairman of REVOLT. “The future is happening in real-time, so we all have a responsibility to share the access, information, and opportunities that will move the culture forward and the REVOLT Summit is where it all starts.”

This year’s Summit will introduce a new format, featuring a lineup of interactive keynotes, panel conversations, live performances, and town hall discussions with the most prominent voices shaping the future. The Summit will also provide access to life-changing networking opportunities, valuable information and mentorship through the AT&T Office Hours, Career Fair, Pitch Competition, and the annual Be Heard Finale.

“Our mission at REVOLT is to provide a platform for the artists, creators and cultural leaders shaping the future of Hip Hop across categories and this year’s Summit is anchored in bringing this vision to life,” said Detavio Samuels, CEO of REVOLT. “Atlanta represents the epicenter of Hip Hop culture today, so we’re excited to return with a new slate of programming, marquee talent, and live experiences that explore what’s next, while highlighting how both REVOLT and Hip Hop continue evolving.”

Thriving at the intersection of culture and education, the Summit unites the biggest artists, innovators, activists and industry leaders to explore the future of Hip Hop, culture, community, commerce, connectivity and the future of REVOLT. Maintaining an unwavering commitment to the local community, the Summit will once again take place at 787 Windsor, a 3.5-acre urban art studio and outdoor open area campus owned by Sharod Simpson, founder and CEO of street meets faith brand, God Is Dope.
