About The Conference

This conference will address how Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion related issues impact the growth and development of businesses and institutions. The conference will create opportunities for institutions and businesses to make new connections and learn strategies to eliminate barriers, create opportunities and increase growth.

Our Mission

Our mission is to develop communities that are amazing places to live and work for everyone. We work with community organizations and business leaders to address issues of diversity and inclusion and how it impacts social and economic growth. We achieve this by creating opportunities for community organizations and businesses to connect, discuss relevant needs, discuss issues and work toward creating solutions. Such issues include recruiting and retaining diverse talent, community development, organization and beyond.

Continued Mission

Businesses and community organizations will also be able to participate in a table expo. Opportunities to network and connect will be available throughout the event.
