Oklahoma City, OK — On Saturday, April 14, 2018, the Oklahoma Black Business Expo will take place at the Cox Convention Center in downtown Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. This anticipated event is intended to bring attention to African American entrepreneurs and business owners, and the resources that assist them in being successful. The expo’s purpose is to highlight the 13,905 Black-owned businesses (U.S Census Bureau 2012 Survey) in Oklahoma, as well as to inspire the next generation.
The Oklahoma Black Business Expo is an effective platform in ultimate exposure for African-American and multi-ethnic businesses, academic institutions, and various community resources that have made a positive impact in the lives of their community members. With the Black population of Oklahoma being well over 260,000 the need for a statewide event is needed and necessary. Due to the need, there will be a time set aside for children to compete for business funding as well as Empowerment Sessions throughout the event.
The expo is currently sponsored by Leveaux Group, Inc., The Journal Record, BlackPR.com, Oklahoma Army National Guard, Oklahoma State University’s Office of Diversity & Inclusion, Langston University and will present such excellence as the Emmy award winning Jabee Williams.
