📍WBEC NY DMV is on the road!

Over the past several weeks we've traveled to impactful events across our regions, spending time with our incredible WBEs and partners.

Here's a snapshot of where we've been lately:

1. Our CEO, Phala Mire, and WBE Dee Marshall, owner of Diverse & Engaged, sat on a panel at the Congressional Black Caucus Made for the Moment Annual Legislative Conference.

2. We attended the DC Chamber of Commerce State of the District, with special guest speaker Mayor Muriel Bowser.

3. We were proud to participate in the ConEdison SEEDing Success Summit alongside Tohma Gadson-Shaw of ConEdison. At the event we were so pleased to see WBE Samantha Williams, owner of 628 Digital Design.

4. We were thrilled to be a part of the Founders First CAE event alongside CEO Kim Folsom. We were also privileged to see WBEs Maryann Pagano, owner of BlackHawk Data, Tameka Flowers-Ball, owner of Epiphany Blue, and Geraldine Keogh, owner of Biens Chocolate Centerpieces.

5. We were excited to attend the Washington Gas Biz Pitch competition.
