Speed mentoring with experts

Ready to level up your business plans and connect with those who’ve already walked the path? Join us for a special Black Business Week Speed Mentorship Mixer — a high-impact event designed to spark clarity, confidence, and connection.

We’re inviting 30 participants to take part in an exclusive speed networking experience, where you’ll rotate through small-group discussions with Black business owners and professionals who bring lived experience and expert insight in areas such as:

  • Business Development
  • Legal/Contractual
  • Business Credit & Financing
  • Marketing & Branding
  • Business Insurance

This is your opportunity to share your ideas, challenges, and plans with experts who’ve been there, done that — and who are ready to offer real, actionable insight.
