Reclaiming the Narrative Around Black Business

Saturday 26 October

Join us to reclaim the narrative of what it means to be a Black business and empower founders to build authentic & successful enterprises.

 

For our annual Black History Month event, we want to follow this year’s theme of reclaiming narratives. You’ll have an opportunity to exchange knowledge and establish networks that will support and reclaim the narrative of what a black entrepreneur/ business is. This event is designed to empower black founders by addressing the key challenges and opportunities in building successful businesses on their own terms.

You’ll leave with insights on building a business that reflects your vision, practical strategies for securing funding, and enhancing your brand. Additionally, you’ll form valuable connections within the black entrepreneurial community and gain actionable steps to challenge stereotypes and reshape perceptions of black-owned businesses.

What the event will cover:

  • Innovation and Creativity: Building Businesses on Your Own Terms
  • The Role of Community: Building Strong Support Networks
  • Changing Perceptions: Challenging Stereotypes and Misconceptions
  • Navigating Funding and Investment: Securing Capital for Black-Owned Businesses
  • Personal Branding & Social Media: Leveraging Media & Storytelling to Reshape Public Perceptions
  • *More information on the expert speakers will be added soon*
