Description

What is it like being a BIPOC coffeeshop or coffee company owner? How can our industry better support BIPOC coffee professionals? We will chat through the real, raw, transparent side of being a minority in the coffee industry ownership side. We will discuss the truth behind work ethic, motivation, culture within the coffee, and open up the discussion to questions from the audience. Learn about the owners behind these shops and brands, and what they've endured getting to where they are today. This is an important discussion to listen to for all members of the coffee community.

 

This is a free session included with your general admission.
