ELEVATE 100

Get ready for an evening that’s not just about business networking—it’s about setting the stage for what’s needed next in entrepreneurship support and economic empowerment in Connecticut.

With a new Federal administration on the horizon and the new year just around the corner, the timing couldn’t be better. This is your chance to be part of something powerful, disruptive, and inspiring.

What’s on the agenda?

• Panel Discussion: We’ll be diving deep into Economic Empowerment Under the New Administration —a conversation about how we can strengthen the black entrepreneur ecosystem in Connecticut over the next 1, 5, 10, 20, and even 30 years. Our panel will feature thought leaders who understand the challenges and opportunities facing small business owners and the diaspora today.

• Open Q&A and Forum: Your voice matters. We’ll open the floor for questions, comments and open discussion, giving you the opportunity to contribute your ideas, challenges, perspectives and solutions to the problems at hand.

• Business Networking & Social Gathering: Connect with like-minded entrepreneurs and community leaders. Enjoy music from DJ Rocdabloc, Appetizers from Jazzy’s and treats from Erika Bakes LLC as we turn the night into a celebration of what’s possible.
