Session

Building Diverse Business Ecosystems
Facilitated by KATHEY PORTER, Author, Founder and CEO, Porter Brown Associates

Date & Time
Monday, October 5, 2020, 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM
Description

We've heard the statistics, many businesses will not make it through this unprecedented time. While the stimulus provided a brief respite, they cannot go on forever and a stimulus alone cannot save small businesses.

In this time of COVID and social unrest, it is imperative that small businesses develop their own solutions - solutions that help to stabilize their businesses and strengthen their communities. However, in doing this, they must ensure it is inclusive and encourages all businesses to participate.

In this session, you will learn:

  • What is a diverse business ecosystem?
  • Why diverse ecosystems are important for the entire community
  • How social unrest leads to economic distress
  • How to develop a diverse business ecosystem that benefits the entire community

Each participant will receive a full copy of my whitepaper, "Beyond the Contract: Building Diverse Business Ecosystems."
