This past weekend, I attended the Black Entrepreneurs & Businesses of Canada Society (BEBC)'s Black Business Summit and was blown away by the incredible entrepreneurs making a huge impact in our communities across Canada and the world 🌎. Thank you to Jackee Kasandy, Candace Lauren and the rest of the team for organizing this Summit. Thank you also for sponsoring Mutima Canada’s participation in the procurement program for facilitating meetings with our future partners from the Procurement teams at The University of British Columbia, RBC, and TELUS Procurement teams. With our non-diluted seed capital by the Black Business Initiative, we will be introducing an RTD Energy beverage to the market while also providing newcomers with integrated work learning opportunities that is centred on community. Thanks for all the advice Paul Brassard. It was invaluable ✨ Also thank you Courtney Formosa for explaining the procurement process for RBC. Game changer📈 The pitch competition began with the grand prize of $25,000 for first place. However, the night ended with a total of $80,000 in funds raised through Craig Wellington and the Black Opportunity Fund who awarded the 2nd place winner with $25,000!🤯 Entrepreneurs in our community also generously awarded the 3rd, 4th, and 5th place winners $7500 each 🔥🔥🔥. Honestly, you had to be there. The event was absolutely amazing! A night out was planned to celebrate the winners of the pitch competition. See the selfie of us at the Gastown Steam Clock 😊 BC Community Alliance was also on the ground to introduce our Safe School Hub waitlist (We are offering $250 to a lucky winner who signs up here: https://lnkd.in/g_cgqtpc). BCCA also brought two students from our Support for Student Learning Program, who engaged the attendees by sharing our exciting new platform (currently in development). Thank you to our partners at the municipal, provincial, federal, corporate and foundation levels who’ve provided funding, capacity and so much more to support our expansion plans. We are currently developing our circular framework model (Loading). Congratulations to the pitch competition winners.
