The Levy Inspiration Grant Program, managed by the Entrepreneurship team at the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, is an immersive funding program that allows students to travel to a place that they have (usually) never been to learn about big, gnarly problems that the world is facing and how those problems might be solved through entrepreneurship. When they return, each student sits down with us to share their newly-acquired knowledge with the community, allowing us to build an ever-growing collection of knowledge and stories. Join us as we follow the journeys of each of our students across the world where they live out the program's singular motto: go see for yourself.

Building a Rum Brand with Kimberley Charles and Kiyan Savar
Entrepreneurship runs in Kimberley Charles’ family, so when she told her law school classmate Kiyan Savar about her desire to start her own rum brand, it just made sense. Since then, they’ve partnered to start building Cane Cutter’s Rum, a Guyanese-made rum that honors the history and legacy of the rum industry and the people that made it. For their Inspiration Grant, they traveled to Guyana, Barbados, and Martinique to learn as much as they could about rum, from the distilling process to the opinions and habits of rum-drinking locals. Here, they share some of their learnings and what’s next for their entrepreneurial journey.
