Conference
Connect, Trade, Partner, and Invest With Global Black Businesses and Stakeholders
The Go Global Conference and International Trade Expo is designed for one purpose — business-to-business matchmaking. This is not your typical conference packed with endless panels. Here, the spotlight is on creating real connections between multicultural businesses and stakeholders from around the world. With limited plenary sessions and a strong focus on deal-making, partner sourcing, and global networking, Go Global is where the Global Black Business Community comes to do business.
-
01. Connect with global Black entrepreneurs.
-
02. Source trade, investment, and partnerships.
-
03. Walk away with real leads.
Inspire. Educate. Lead on the Global Stage.
