Diverse and inclusive workplaces lead to more robust and competitive businesses. America’s society is transforming as key minority ethnic groups gradually become the majority population in some large urban areas and states. The buying power of this “New Majority” bloc is growing exponentially, with the combined consumer muscle of African Americans, Asian Americans and Latinos forecast to reach over $4.1 trillion in 2019. This development cannot be ignored. Forward-thinking business leaders are taking steps to harness the new mainstream economy to their strategic plans.
Description:
A two-day gathering of Asian, Latino, African American corporate leaders, entrepreneurs, diversity and inclusion experts and advocates to take stock of the emergence of the New Majority demographics that are transforming how businesses operate, sell, recruit and grow.
Fortified by an alliance with the CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion, the Asian American Business Development Center will chair a multicultural discussion of key topics including: redefining diversity in businesses, cultural identity for the new generation, investing in multicultural startups, minority women in the C-Suite, the impact of shifting ethnicity on politics and case studies of collaboration across cultures.
