JACKSONVILLE, Fla. \u2013 Jacksonville is about to take center stage in a whole new way.<\/p>\n

The Think Bold Festival and conference is back \u2014 a multi-day experience blending culture, business, technology, and community \u2014 all designed to help people not just dream bigger but actually build something from it. <\/p>\n

And at the heart of it all are co-founders Troy McNair and Maurice \u201cMo\u201d Henderson \u2014 cultural architects and innovation strategists who have worked across music, entrepreneurship, and community development \u2014 helping shape how cities connect with the next generation. These two guys didn\u2019t just create an event; they built an ecosystem \u2014 one that\u2019s already impacted hundreds of entrepreneurs and thousands of young people. <\/p>\n

This week \u2014 that vision comes to life right here in Jacksonville with everything from artificial intelligence masterclasses and real estate power brunches to fireside chats on turning struggle into success and creativity into ownership. McNair and Henderson take us inside the mission \u2014 and the moments you won\u2019t see unless you\u2019re in the room.<\/p>\n

Watch the full interview above.<\/p>\n

Think Bold Festival and Conference takes place Thursday-Sunday at the Hyatt Regency Jacksonville Riverfront.<\/p>\n

Tickets available on Think Bold Festival.<\/a><\/p>\n
