First Annual Black Business Expo
The first annual Black Business Expo was held on Tuesday, June 20, at Tinkham Veale University Center. The morning offered a small business seminar featuring Tiffany Keaton, board chair and manager at TIAA. Keaton led a mock data enrichment exercise to determine average diverse spend, confirm company ownership of their largest suppliers, discuss ways to shift spend to other Black businesses and ponder how to create greater economic impact. The afternoon held the public expo, allowing the community to purchase goods from each vendor. Stay tuned for information on our next Black-owned business event!
