The People’s Brunch marks the beginning of Black History Month with an intentional gathering rooted in community, connection, and collective progress.
Co-hosted by Built to Last and Afroretta, this experience brings entrepreneurs, creatives, and business owners together in a setting designed to foster meaningful relationships, shared insight, and strategic connection. The People’s Brunch is not about performance or hustle culture. It is about being in the room, building partnerships, and strengthening the ecosystem of Black-owned and community-centered businesses.
This afternoon blends a curated brunch, thoughtful networking, and a marketplace highlighting entrepreneurs and service-based brands who are doing purposeful work. The environment is welcoming, elevated, and grounded in the belief that sustainable growth is built through people and relationships.
Keynote Speaker: David Geter
Founder, The Next Steps
David Geter is a executive coach, and business consultant with over 24 years as a business owner and leader, helping executives, managers, and organizations move from stuck to strategic, and from busy to effective.
As the Founder & CEO of The Next Steps, David brings a rare blend of real-world business experience, technology leadership, and certified coaching expertise to the stage. He doesn’t speak in theory. He speaks from the trenches, where decisions cost real money, leadership gaps create real consequences, and clarity changes everything. Whether speaking to executives, emerging leaders, business owners, or teams in transition, David delivers what most speakers don’t: clarity, accountability, and momentum.
Because at the end of the day, growth doesn’t happen by accident. It happens when leaders take The Next Steps.
