Black Voices in Leadership and Entrepreneurship

Tuesday, February 17 | 1:30 p.m. - 2:45 p.m. |  Winnet Student Life Bulding Collabortion Commons, Room S1-16

Join us to amplify the lived experiences, insights and expertise of Black women and individuals who identify as LGBTQ+. This gathering creates a space to explore leadership and entrepreneurship through an intersectional lens, honoring the diverse identities, pathways and contributions within Black communities. Through storytelling, dialogue and connection, the event seeks to inspire students and emerging leaders by showcasing how Black women and LGBTQ+ professionals navigate leadership, build businesses, and create impact across industries. In addition to learning from panelists, participants will have the opportunity to engage in meaningful networking, fostering relationships that support professional growth, community-building, and collective empowerment. At its core, this event affirms that Black leadership is not monolithic—and that representation, visibility, and shared knowledge are critical to cultivating inclusive pathways to success.
