Harold is the truest definition of a modern day multihyphenate. He is the Founder and CEO of NFNTE Capital, an entrepreneur services company designed to help entrepreneurs—aspiring and current—unlock the value of social capital, starting with their personal networks. As a serial entrepreneur, he has started businesses and secured partnerships over his nearly two decades of experience in business development, partnerships, and operations.
When he’s not building businesses, he’s creating community. Harold co-founded the first token-gated community for Black founders, funders, creators, and community leaders. He later co-founded Catalyst Labs, building the flagship curriculum from his experience as an entrepreneur.
Before launching NFNTE Capital, Harold raised more than $5M for his venture-backed startup, supporting brands like Pepsi and LIFEWTR, as well as athletes in the NFL, MLS, and NCAA.
He is also an educator, having authored A Kids Book About Blockchain to ensure that this revolutionary technology isn’t lost on the next generation. As a self-proclaimed “round character,” he proudly shares his experiences as a dad, a foodie, and his mental and physical health journey to inspire and engage others.
Harold believes that NFNTE Capital is the culmination of all the “dots” he’s been connecting since 2004, and he is excited to bring his newest vision to life.
“Harold Hughes’ presence at this summer’s Beyond Buckets SLCCE was nothing short of transformative. As a speaker, he captivated our students with his engaging storytelling and deep insights into the worlds of technology, angel investing, and the unique journey of being a Black founder. His ability to connect these complex topics with relatable experiences and accessible wisdom truly resonated with our audience. Harold’s passion for empowering the next generation shone through every word, motivating our students to explore new horizons and think beyond traditional career paths. His contribution was a crucial part of making this year’s event a resounding success, leaving a lasting impact on all who had the privilege of listening to him.”
“‘A Kids Book About Blockchain’ made understanding blockchain a breeze. The simple storytelling not only demystified the technology but also sparked my curiosity. Now, I feel confident exploring more and taking the next step in my learning journey.”
“As a total beginner to blockchain, Harold changed everything. He breaks down complex concepts in an engaging way, making me not only understand the basics but also excited to learn more. A fantastic starting point for adults ready to explore the world of blockchain.”
“Harold’s willingness to be transparent about his journey really gave me permission to not be so hard on myself. His story about being creative in finding his first team member encouraged me to keep going but rest when I need to.”
“Few founders understand their business as well as Harold does, let alone have the skillset to quickly breakdown business models and go-to-market strategies of others. His angel portfolio is impressive and with every deal that he does, I see him creating more access for others interested in startups.”
