Emergency Minority Business Certification Briefing & Status Update

🚨 EMERGENCY MINORITY CERTIFICATION BRIEFING 🚨
Calling ALL Minority-Certified Businesses Across the D/FW Metroplex

In light of the State of Texas’ recent reversal of the HUB program, the Arlington Black Chamber of Commerce is convening an urgent regional briefing to ensure every certified minority business has the clarity, strategy, and support needed to move forward with strength and purpose.

This is not the moment for fear — it’s the moment for facts, unity, and perseverance.

For decades, supplier diversity has been the backbone of business equity, fair competition, and economic access for historically underrepresented businesses. While policies may shift, our collective readiness, resilience, and informed action remain our greatest advantage.

Join us for a critical Minority Certification Status Update & Business Briefing designed to answer what’s changing, what’s not, and what your business must do next to protect—and expand—your fair share of opportunity.

Why You MUST Be in the Room:

• ✔️ Understand the real implications behind the state’s HUB reversal
• ✔️ Hear directly from certifying agencies & advisors
• ✔️ Learn how to leverage your minority certification in evolving conditions
• ✔️ Get actionable guidance for maintaining visibility and competitiveness
• ✔️ Strengthen your network with other certified businesses ready to push forward

Supplier Diversity Still Matters.
Your Business Still Matters.
And this briefing matters for your future positioning more than ever.
