Now, let’s talk about how we closed out May with two dynamic events that captured the spirit of what we’re building together:

1. BLK BIZ SUMMIT Media Day
We captured fire footage, shared stories, and set the tone for what’s to come on August 1, 2025, at the 4th Annual BLK BIZ SUMMIT in Durham, NC.

🎟️ Tickets are on sale now at www.blkbizsummit.com
Use promo code BLACKWALLST courtesy of our sponsor Black Wall Street Forward and get $10 OFF — now through June 30!

Get ready to “Experience the Energy” and connect with hundreds of thriving Black entrepreneurs, creators, and change-makers.

2. Women Leaders Luncheon
We gathered an incredible room of powerhouse women and shared real talk, actionable wisdom, and sisterhood.
We heard from amazing speakers:

• Durham County Commissioner Michelle Burton,
• Cherith Roberson, and
• La-Tasha Best-Gaddy

Each speaker poured into our guests with the knowledge and encouragement every woman leader deserves. It was a day full of intention, joy, and elevation.

If you missed our Be In The Ecosystem Virtual Meetup on Monday with La-Tasha Best Gaddy, LaShon Harley, and Eric Reese then you missed our recap of the Durham Evolution Summit and a lot of great events and programs that are happening in the Durham, NC area. WATCH NOW

We’re also actively seeking sponsors for the upcoming 4th Annual BLK BIZ SUMMIT!
