EDUCATING AND SUPPORTING YOU THROUGH YOUR ENTREPRENEURIAL JOURNEY

Black Business Network Update

We’re taking a pause. While the Black Business Network won’t be actively running for the foreseeable future, our website remains open for you to explore resources on the Support Hub.

Members can continue accessing our toolkits and templates as usual.

To stay connected with the community, our chat has been redirected to another Black Business group chat where you can still engage with like-minded entrepreneurs.

Thank you for being part of this journey. We hope the tools and resources here continue to support your success.
