“The vibe here is unmatched. It's unlike anything that i've had the opportunity to participate in.”
“These were probably some of the best speaker panels I’ve seen at a lot of all these conferences I’ve been to. I truly see a collaborative environment…this is a sense of community that I'm overall impressed by”.
“I have never seen so many elite Black men come across the stage on every panel from the moderator on down. I feel like the content is so relevant because it speaks to who we are day to day as a people, how we can make it, and how we can thrive in this space.”
