Conversations and Connections Vol. 2

“Conversation and Connections” is a Seattle Black Business networking mixer serving as a hub for business owners in the Seattle metro area. It is taking place in an intimate setting at Illuminate Studios - a recently opened Black owned creative arts studio in Seattle’s historical neighborhood, Pioneer Square.

We are bringing the community together to present viable solutions to address the racial wealth gap here in Seattle and the Washington area. We aim to have prominent leaders, creators, innovators, and influencers in one room from different business sectors within the community. We will discuss problems that adversely impact us both materially and monetarily and follow up with what actions and steps we need to take to eliminate these problems.

We are parntering with Business Impact NW
