EVENT RECAP - Black Enterprise ENTREPRENEURS Conference + Expo - Atlanta, GA - May 16th - 19th
I had the priviledged honor of attending the 15th Anniversary Black Enterprise Entepreneurs Conference + Expo. The theme was "Building Business Beyond Tomorrow" and the conference indeed captured the essence of the tagline by highligting powerful and successful professionals, as well as giving us access to business leaders and knowledge that can and will shape entrepreneurs' futures. Building your own brand is the new wave of the business world and the conference helped professionals to establish a strong foundation as we strike out on our own to conquer our dreams!
FAB was on the scene to attend the exclusive workshop sessions, exhibits, small business award luncheon, awards gala and the many many networking opportunities that were provided throughout the conference. The event reitterated the importance of surrounding yourself with positive, inspiring and business-minded individuals. Your circle of friends and colleagues should be a reflection of the type of success you aspire to achieve and should challenge you to do just that!
