The Black Business Network (BBN)

I decided to start this group because my partners and I wanted to do something different to assist our people in business. This group will focus on generating support for our many black owned businesses and entrepreneur-ships.Every business owner and entrepreneur will have an opportunity to present their business plan or idea to strengthen and connect with the black community in an informal setting.

(Please dress business casual)
