Get ready for a powerful and high-energy evening at our May Exchange Networking Event! 🚀✨

We’re excited to welcome Candice Matthews Brackeen, Founder of the Lightship Foundation and Owner of Black Tech Week, as our featured guest speaker and trust us, this is a conversation you do not want to miss.

As a nationally recognized leader in innovation, venture capital, and inclusive entrepreneurship, Candice is at the forefront of building pathways for underestimated founders and shaping the future of tech and business ecosystems. She’ll share powerful insights on access to capital, scaling your business, and how entrepreneurs can position themselves to thrive in today’s rapidly evolving landscape.

If you’ve ever wondered:
• How can I access funding and resources to grow my business?
• What does it take to scale and compete in today’s tech-driven economy?
• How can I plug into opportunities like Black Tech Week and larger innovation ecosystems?

This is the room to be in.

Expect intentional networking, real conversations, and game-changing insights that will challenge you to think bigger about what’s possible for your business. Whether you're building, scaling, or looking to tap into spaces like Black Tech Week, this Exchange is where opportunity meets connection.

Come ready to connect.
Come ready to learn.
Come ready to level up.

Let’s build what’s next together. 💼✨
