Black & Thriving: FIFA 2026 Think Tank
FIFA World Cup is coming to Seattle in 2026 and the city is expecting nearly $1 billion in revenue to pour in. The question is: Will Black-owned businesses get their share?At this next Black & Thriving event, were gathering with the cities top scene curators to make sure the answer is YES.
This isn’t just another networking night. It’s a working strategy session designed to get us connected, position us for success, and make connections that will position our community for success in 2026 and beyond.
What to Expect:
- Insider intel on FIFA 2026
- Visability into Africatown's FIFA Economic Development plan
- Networking with decision-makers and fellow culture creator entrepreneurs
- Action planning so you leave with clear next steps
Why You Should Come:FIFA 2026 will be one of the largest events Seattle has ever hosted. The world will be watching, the city will be buzzing, and the dollars will be flowing. If our community is not prepared, someone else will claim our spots. This is our window to get organized and activate a plan together.
Who It’s For:Black event-producers, production companies, curators, tastemakers, and scene shifters.
Why Now:Opportunities like this don’t come often. Seattle won’t host a global event of this scale again for decades. Planning starts now if we wait until 2026 we'll be operating at a handicap.
Join us.Let’s strategize, collaborate, and make sure Seattle’s Black-owned businesses don’t just participate in FIFA 2026—we dominate it.
