Black Business Excellence in The First State - Kent County

Black Business Excellence in the First State is a series of engaging events taking place across the state in February!

Black History Month is a time to celebrate Black Excellence in various arenas, and the small business sphere is no exception.

This February, the SBDC Community Navigator program, SBA Delaware and the Delaware Black Chamber of Commerce are proud to present opportunities to celebrate Black Excellence in Business in each of Delaware's three counties.

Each event centers on a panel discussion of Black-owned businesses' resilience and fortitude and the resources available to support their success.

Registration for these free-of-charge events is open to the public. Delaware small businesses, community stakeholders, and all small business supporters are invited to join to hear from the panels and participate in networking.
