USBC couldn’t be more excited for our upcoming event, powered by longtime corporate partners AT&T on March 24th in Washington, DC. This event will celebrate women entrepreneurs from diverse backgrounds who have made significant contributions in business and their communities.

“USBC is being intentional about challenging the status quo by curating a conversation about women’s
entrepreneurship. We will honor the achievements of women who’ve broken through glass ceilings and challenged traditional definitions of success, while also examining the many factors that prevent Black  women from achieving their entrepreneurial dreams.” Says USBC President & CEO, Ron Busby.

The event will showcase the “Giants of Women’s Entrepreneurship” and unpack how we can redefine what it means to intentionally empower women at every stage of their journey. National radio and television personality Taylor Thomas will emcee USBC’s Women of Power Luncheon, featuring fireside conversations moderated by Jotaka Eaddy, founder and CEO of Full Circle Strategies, LLC and USBC EVP, Talisha Bekavac.

The hybrid event will host 80 special invited in-person guests in addition to being broadcasted for virtual
attendees. The event is expected to draw a hybrid audience of more than 300 business owners, influencers, entrepreneurs, corporate executives and community leaders from across the country. Attendees will hear from founders, investors and community leaders who are setting new standards for the industry, discover how to get more involved with female founder initiatives and network with other like-minded individuals.
