About Us

WHAT WE DO

Through deliberate partnerships, we develop premier conferences that leverage the knowledge, influence and resources of the major financial institutions, insurance agencies and estate planning advisors, in order to inspire, educate and build Black wealth and economic might – enriching our families, our communities, and the entire country.

WHY WE EXIST

Our “why” is radical and clear. We exist to close the racial wealth gap in our country by educating as many black families as possible about financial wellness, wealth building and its sustainable management.
