Black Business Month: Innovation, Inclusion and Insights

Revisit our dynamic roundtable discussion to hear our esteemed guests - business owners, strategic partners, DEI executives, and researchers – share perspectives and tips on everything from marketing and AI to supplier diversity programs and networking.

Did you know that 1,800 women-owned businesses are created each day in the US? Or that Black women are 6x more likely to start a business than White men? Or that one of the biggest barriers to success for women entrepreneurs or entrepreneurs of color is access to capital?

In honor of Black Business Month, we hosted a dynamic roundtable discussion focused on best practices and emerging opportunities for women and minority owned businesses. Moderated by Ipsos’ Janelle James, this session featured a dynamic panel of business owners, strategic partners, DEI executives, and researchers discussing everything from marketing and AI to supplier diversity programs and networking. Revisit the recording now to hear from:

  • Omar Hawkins, American Express, Director Financial Inclusion Product Management
  • Sofia Hernandez, TikTok, Global Head of Business Marketing
  • LaShaun Solomon, Pyramid Consulting, Chief DEI Officer
  • Dawn Carr, Mahogany Insights, CEO & Founder
  • Stephanie Espy, MathSP & STEM Gems, Founder

If you are a founder, owner, or an employee of an MBE or WBE or work for an organization that partners with MBEs or WBEs, you don’t want to miss this conversation on breaking barriers and building bridges in the WBE and MBE ecosystem.
