Partner with Morgan

Reach the professionals building what comes next.

I'm Morgan DeBaun, founder and CEO of Blavity Inc and AfroTech, national bestselling author of Rewrite Your Rules, and a 2026 Henry Crown Fellow at the Aspen Institute. Across my channels I talk to mid-career professionals and founders about AI, money, and how to grow a business without burning out. I help brands show how their products fit into the decisions people make at work and at home.

The Journey
Where I get operators and experts in the room and go deep.
Recent newsletter examples

Ideas people open and read.

Editorial posts, not paid campaign results. Post-level metrics as displayed in Substack on October 14, 2026.

Views and platform-reported open rates are rounded. These are individual editorial examples, not a newsletter-wide average or a guarantee of campaign results.

Audience focus

Who I create for

My editorial focus is the people making decisions about their careers, businesses, and everyday lives. These groups describe the content focus, not measured demographic percentages.

Mid-career and moving

Professionals past the entry level, considering their next move and the tools that help them work and live better.

Founders and builders

People running their own businesses and audience owners building a brand, from side income to seven figures, buying the systems, tools, and AI that help them grow.

Thought leaders

Voices shaping the conversation in their field, writers, speakers, and experts whose recommendations move rooms.

Executive operators

Directors, VPs, and C-suite leaders making budget calls and steering how their companies adopt AI and new tools.

Ways to partner

Capabilities

A few ways brands and teams work with me. Mix and match, or start with one.

Speaking

Talks and hands-on sessions on AI, tech tools, and building smarter. Your room leaves with a clear plan they can use Monday morning.

Content

Sponsored Content and Campaigns

Product demonstrations, founder perspectives, and integrated stories across agreed channels, shaped around your campaign objective.

Ongoing

Longer collaborations where we build something together over time. Ambassadorships, product co-signs, and multi-channel programs.
