BEA’s 5th Year Anniversary Celebration ✦
Five years of building against the odds deserves a real celebration.
This November, the Black Entrepreneurship Alliance is bringing together Black entrepreneurs, founders, professionals, alumni, and allied partners who have helped shape our journey over the past five years for one unforgettable evening of culture, storytelling, music, connection, and celebration.
More than an anniversary, this is a celebration of the people who chose to build despite the barriers, the businesses that started as ideas, the careers that grew through opportunity, the partnerships that strengthened our community, and the stories that continue to inspire what's possible. Together, we'll reflect on where we've been, celebrate everything we've built, and look ahead to BEA's future.
More details, ticket information, and the full event experience will be announced soon. For now, save the date and join us as we celebrate five years of building against the odds.
PLEASE NOTE: Invitations are non-transferable, and additional guests (+1s) are not allowed. Our event space has limited capacity, which we strictly enforce.
