Black-Owned Business Spotlight
Click Here to register for event.
Join Wells Fargo for this Black-Owned Business Spotlight - the third of 4 webinars in their Community Series in May.
About this event
Four Black-Owned small business panelists will share their business stories, and how they have navigated the Covid-19 pandemic and increased racial tensions over the past twelve months.
We will hear how they are pivoting their businesses and are adapting to new ways of operating as the state continues to re-open.
We will be joined by Ebon Glenn, Operations Director at the San Francisco African-American Arts and Cultural District, who will speak to the issue of racism and how Black-Owned businesses have been affected by this, as well as by the pandemic, and the organizing efforts of community groups to address both issues.
Our Panelists:
Chloe Jackman
Ulrich Simpson
Tyrisha Frias
Quanisha Johnson
