About this Event
Celebrating Black History Month: Know the Past. Build the Future.
February 25, 2026 | 10:30 AM
Bamboo Ann Arbor
Join us for a thoughtful conversation exploring how the lessons of Black history inform entrepreneurship, workforce development, innovation, community leadership, and economic opportunity today.
Why This Conversation Matters
Black history is American history.
It shapes world history.
When we understand our shared past, we strengthen our ability to lead in the present and build a future that ensures success for all.
This gathering moves beyond reflection and focuses on action. Together, we will explore how history is being written in real time through:
• Business ownership
• Job creation
• Education
• Cross sector partnership
This event is designed to bring together Black leaders and committed allies in a shared conversation about responsibility, opportunity, and innovation. Building a stronger future requires participation, partnership, and intention.
After the Panel
Stay for networking and an intimate and curated mini resource fair designed to connect you directly with local entrepreneurship, workforce, and business ecosystem partners.
Select registered attendees will have a two minute spotlight to share how their business, organization, or work is shaping the future of Black history and advancing the greater good for all.
- Those interested in being considered for a spotlight moment may indicate their interest during registration. Spots are limited and thoughtfully curated.
Space is limited. Reserve your seat today.
We look forward to gathering with you.
Warm Regards,
Bamboo x Konnected
