Instagram, Black Beauty Roster Team for First In-person BBR Beauty Summit

is kicking off its first in-person BBR Beauty Summit in New York on Friday, and has taken on some heavy-hitting panelists to do so.It’s an expansion upon Black Beauty Roster’s founding mission when it launched in 2020 as a collective of Black professionals in the beauty industry, aimed at connecting professional talent with job opportunities, said Maude Okrah Hunter, Black Beauty Roster’s founder and chief executive officer.

The event, which will take place at the Meta offices in New York, will entail a mix of both workshops and panels. The audience, Hunter said, is “a diverse audience and a mixture of creators, beauty professionals and beauty industry leaders. “We wanted to ensure that people could take tangible steps and actions that they could apply to their different careers,” Hunter continued. “Being able to hear from a direct source, like a Jessica Cruel, Sam Fine, Kim Kimble or Larry Sims about their experiences is really big.”

Topics will include securing brand deals, mental health, maintaining relevance, entrepreneurship, agency reputation and social media, among others. Sponsors include“You’re in rooms where you hear a lot of nos, but you see the market opportunity and impact that you can bring,” Hunter said. “We find that there are brands and companies pausing or leaning back on, and we believe that when we bring information, we empower the next generation of creators, beauty professionals and talent.
