We want to thank all who were able to attend our LIVE LinkedIn Audio event today! 👏🏾👏🏽 As part of our thank you we want to share some resources that were mentioned during our event for those interested in pursuing a path to business ownership. We want to shout out the Delaware Black Chamber of Commerce as well as Ayanna Khan, M.S. who were mentioned by boynton weekes as excellent resources in the Delaware community, and we are tagging them here to make the outreach a little easier. Also, Richard Snow, MBA shared an incredible initiative for those in the #BIPOC community, The Franchise Ascension Initiative. The Franchise Ascension Initiative (FAI) is a 6-month accelerator program aimed at preparing qualified individuals from underrepresented groups and economically disadvantaged communities with the education, mentorship, resources, and support to successfully launch a career in franchise ownership. Check out more information on this program here: https://lnkd.in/eJ4ypV9J Finally, we want to thank our guest speakers one final time, Richard, Boynton, and Devon Mitchell for making this event possible. Also, special shout outs to Jennifer Callender, CFC, PMP - National Resale Franchise Consultant who joined us on the air to share some additional insights and brands in franchising. And also to Samantha T Mitchell who we know is not only Devon's wife, but a crucial partner in their successful Anytime Fitness business. Samantha is an inspiring force in the black community at large, impacting the next generation through her community outreach, philanthropy, and her own organization, Black Women in Aviation. Thank you all for attending and stay tuned for more initiatives and events to promote minority business ownership! #project23 #minoritybusiness #blackownedbusiness #entrepreneurs #accesstocapital #businessownership
