The Black Owners & Women's Collective (BOW) has descended upon the Big Apple, receiving a warm welcome from four-time New York Sen. Chuck Schumer. This year's Capital Conversations Conference celebrates the collective's success in helping Black women-owned businesses achieve sustained growth.
When addressing the need for more diverse businesses and suppliers in New York City, Sen. Schumer applauded the BOW Collective. The organization, comprised of the top 1% of Black women business owners bringing in over $500 million in revenue annually, is on a mission to change the demographic of those "at the table".
Nicole Cober, CEO of the BOW Collective, expressed gratitude for Schumer's kind words and offered to work with him to deliver a more diverse entrepreneurial future to the city. The collective's members employ thousands of U.S. workers and are committed to creating a pipeline of 1M+ business owners.
More than 100 members of the BOW Collective arrived at the landmark NASDAQ building, adorned in their signature green, to be recognized for their work. Ann Williams, owner of R&A Movers Inc., remarked that standing in Times Square felt surreal, like Black Owned Women businesses were kicking the door in at Nasdaq in numbers too large to ignore.
At the Sofitel Hotel, the BOW Collective is continuing to pursue their mission of creating a pipeline of 1M+ business owners. Financial organizations, bankers, and strategic wealth builders have all come together for the Capital Conversations Conference. The BOW Collective's presence in New York City is a true testament to the potential of Black women-owned businesses.
