African American Business Council Meeting

The vision of the African American Business Council is to strategically position black businesses for inclusion and success through opportunity, education, exposure, entrepreneurship, economic development, and public policy advocacy. We are committed to leading, educating, and advocating to grow African American-owned businesses and to create and grow a thriving African American middle class in Wilmington.

During our meeting on April 17th, we will hear a presentation on “Prioritizing Growth Strategies and Creating an Action Plan” from Ramona Farrell owner of Farrell Insights.  This will be an interactive session with group discussion and activities.
