IN-PERSON OR VIRTUAL ATTENDANCE: The 19th Annual Black New England Conference will feature a group of social media influencers who have turned storytelling/personality into income streams, all coming together to address the big question: with the nation's 250th birthday approaching, where does Black America stand? This year’s BNEC is reflective of the times we live in, where discussions about truth, history, and community intersections have come to the forefront. Amidst the chaos, many young people have leveraged their tech expertise to market themselves and create entrepreneurial opportunities. Whether for education, business, activism, or art, the brands created by these influencers have tremendous resonance with today’s young audiences. #BNEC2025 is a great opportunity to get a chance to network and connect with an audience of tech-savvy and passionate young professionals, as well as hear industry insights from proven Black creators.
Keynote Session:
Lynae Vanee, social media guru, activist, & entrepreneur, will be the star of the keynote fireside chat.
