About this event

Join the LiftFund Dallas/Ft. Worth Women's Business Center for its 2nd Annual Women of Color Conference. Women of color are among the fastest growing segments among small business owners nationwide. In many ways, they are pioneers in entrepreneurship across many industries and are recognized for their innovation, mentorship, impact, and success.

The Women of Color Conference (WOC) seeks to empower and strengthen minority women of color business owners so they can increase earning potential, close the inequality gap when it comes to access to capital and become successful entrepreneurs. We'll cover information on:

  • Risk and Resilience
  • Funding Options for Women Business Owners
  • Leveraging Supplier Diversity Programs to Scale Your Business
  • Digital Marketing Strategies to Increase Brand Awareness
  • How to Form Joint Ventures for Business Growth
  • What Does it Take to Be a Sales Rockstar
  • Scaling Up: Structuring Your Business for Growth
  • The Art of Negotiating
  • The Confidence Formula
  • Resources Available through the SBA
  • Real Talk: DE&I in Business Matters
  • Community Navigator Dallas: Connecting you to the resources that matter
  • Navigating Through our New Normal
