The Black Women's Expo has a new event planned for this month.
Bagels and Bosses is a brunch and business panel on Saturday, April 22. It's from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m at the Hyatt Regency.
"It's a smaller event, much smaller, but it's something we've been asked to do," said Merry Green, President of MGPG Events and creator of the Black Women's Expo. "It's going to be around food and hospitality."There's also a chance for someone to get money to support her own business. The BWe NEXT PowHer Business Grant is a $2500 grant, plus coaching sessions.
"I wanted to do something to something to help small businesses," said Green. "I know what many of our exhibitors at the expo go through, we hear it every year, we watch them come to our show to be at our show, we make it affordable, so that they can be there, and so we wanted to do something with this grant."
