Our Mission To serve as a growth engine for NMSDC certified minority businesses and enable our members to advance economic equity. We create connections between minority business enterprises (MBEs) and corporations, MBEs and the public sector, and MBEs and other MBEs, to help them benefit from each other, stoking entrepreneurship and growing wealth for these systemically excluded communities. Our Vision To be the leading organization for driving socioeconomic equity and generational wealth in communities of color. We build capacity and capabilities through our programs and other educational offerings that help close that wealth gap, the key to creating a more united and prosperous society for all.

At this pivotal moment for Black businesses and our nation , the US Black Chambers’ annual conference at a Black-owned hotel Waldorf Astoria Washington DC last week marked a significant milestone. The highlight was a special reception at Vice President Kamala Harris's residence, where champions of Black and minority businesses gathered in solidarity. We were honored by the presence of Vice President Harris, Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, Secretary Gina Raimondo, Gov. Wes Moore, Acting Under Secretary of Minority Business Development Agency - U.S. Department of Commerce Eric Morrissette, former Mayor and NBA star Kevin Johnson, and former Mayor Stacey Abrams, and many more. I am proud to have shared the stage with Adrienne Trimble to address attacks on DEI and express deep gratitude to President Ron Busby, Sr. for his visionary leadership and commitment to empowering black businesses.
