2022 USBC Policy Brunch
You're Invited!
The U.S. Black Chambers, Inc. (USBC) is committed to protecting the economic well-being and prosperity of Black-owned businesses. One of the five pillars identified in USBC’s pillars of service is to provide advocacy for the chambers and businesses we represent.
Our annual USBC Policy Brunch provides a platform for government affairs professionals, chamber leaders, and business owners to join us in dialogue about issues affecting Black communities and Black businesses.
This year's Policy Brunch will feature panel discussions on cryptocurrency, digital & virtual currencies, the future of Black commerce, USBC's Policy Agenda, and take a deeper dive into “The BLACKprint” – USBC’s position on issues impacting Black businesses.
In addition, we will hear from thought leaders from within the government affairs arena who will share their insights on digital currency, the importance of being a crypto merchant, and why policy successes within their spheres of influence are instrumental for Black business leaders.
