She Owns It She Biz Conference for Black Women Winning in Business Returns for the 2nd Year at UIC Forum During Women's History Month

She Owns It She Biz Conference returns to empower Black Women for a second year in Chicago. The conference will take place from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Friday, March 24, at the UIC Forum, 1213 S. Halsted. It is created and produced by Black women, specifically for Black women, with the support of Black men, making it a comfortable outlet to discuss issues important to them and their community. Anyone who supports or has a genuine interest in working towards inclusion and equity as we celebrate the Black woman is welcome to participate.

In commemoration of National Entrepreneurs Day (November 15), a Black Woman Magic Round Table was held to discuss Black Women in Society and the goals for this year’s conference. The full-day event will be an exchange of ideas, sharing opportunities, and socializing as we grow an authentic business sisterhood. The day will feature panel discussions, workshops, networking, entertainment, the chance to speak with experts one-on-one, and an expo component highlighting business resources and brands selling their products and services. The She Owns It She Biz Conference is growing to be an impactful event reaching beyond the walls of discussion.

Christi Love, Founder of With an Eye PR and Conference Co-Producer with Kiela Wilson of The Lea Pearl Group Inc., saw the need for clients and friends who work with purpose to build businesses and careers to inspire the next generation of Black women in leadership. The first year of the conference focused on business owners and those who had a goal to start a business. However, the vision has expanded to include women looking to grow their careers in corporate spaces and community leaders working to make a difference in the world.

The keynote speaker for this year is Dr. Gena Jones, founder of Business Boss LLC, a successful attorney, CPA, certified tax resolution specialist, and author of “Legacy Made Simple.” Tickets are available for a special promotional price until January 23, 2023. Senior and student pricing is available for those who qualify. Attendees can participate in person or virtually.

Tickets are available on EventBrite.com. https://sheownsitshebiz2023.eventbrite.com
