Blackstone Group plans to make diversity the centerpiece of an expanded student entrepreneurship initiative.

The program, Blackstone Launchpad, will add 45 colleges and universities in the next five years for a total of 75. All of the new schools must have a student population that’s more than half non-White or serve under-resourced communities, the company said in a statement.
