Returning for its fifth straight year, the Black Girl Magic Summit will be held September 30-October 1 at Dallas' AT&T Performing Arts Center. Speakers will include actress-singer Keke Palmer, Pinky Cole of Slutty Vegan, and many more. A pitch competition with $100,000 in grants will be sponsored by Capital One Business.
The fourth annual Black Girl Magic Summit—presented by Dallas-based Boss Women Media and Capital One—was released as a video experience on Amazon's Prime Video Saturday. Here's a look at the winners of its pitch competition, from a Creole fusion-inspired founder to moms who actually get real about motherhood to a woman who's juicing her way to success.
The winners had lots of competition. This year's contest had 10,033 entrants nationwide—almost double the number from 2021.
Dallas' Boss Women Media and Capital One are presenting the fourth consecutive Black Girl Magic Digital Summit. This year they aim to reach more entrepreneurs than ever before by premiering the pre-recorded event on Amazon's Prime Video.
The summit will feature 26 founders, CEOs, and executives with advice on how to turn your side hustle into a main hustle, and much more. From a $100K pitch competition (apply by August 12!) and live watch parties across the U.S., get ready for the magic.
The Disrupt Dallas summit will highlight "champions who are disrupting the entrepreneurial ecosystem and talent pipeline,” says The DEC Network.
The summit on August 8—part of Dallas Startup Week's multi-day event—offers education and programming from local entrepreneurs of color on how to help support and grow a business.
