2024 Florida Black Expo - Political Corner

At the Florida Black Excellence Fest, our commitment remains steadfast to the foundational framework that has defined our mission over the years. As we gear up for another exhilarating weekend, we aim to propel economic development and amplify the visibility of minority-owned businesses. Major corporations alongside governmental entities will be on hand to discuss procurement standards and unveil opportunities for business expansion. Our fest is designed to underscore six pivotal pillars of economic growth and sustainability: Entrepreneurship, Jobs, Wealth Creation, Health, Education, and History/Culture. Each pillar is vital for the thriving economic landscape of our community.

Political engagement is essential for the progress of both businesses and our broader community. The Florida Black Excellence Fest leverages its influential platform to showcase Political Candidates in an impartial, non-partisan setting. Our Political Corner is a dynamic activation within the fest, providing candidates with a platform to present their visions, share candidacy details, and engage directly with the community.
