Minority Business Enterprise Webinar Series: ​​​​​​​Adapting to a Changed World

Four Part Series In June

Adapting to a Changed World

Practical Ways Minority-Owned Business Can Survive (and Even Thrive) in a Post-COVID-19 World

As we cautiously assess plans to emerge from the pandemic, business operations are likely to look very different. 

Successful businesses will be the ones that learn to adapt — those willing to evaluate current business models, how they position themselves in the market, and how their current operations can be improved to ensure the safety of their employees and customers.

Adapting to a Changed World is a four-part webinar series presented by Dinsmore attorneys, in collaboration with the African American Chamber of Commerce, the Minority Business Accelerator and the Minority Supplier Development Council, designed to equip minority-owned businesses with practical legal insights and strategies to assess, adapt, and reposition for success.

Presented over two weeks, these webinars will explain how to negotiate with key stakeholders, navigate new tax provisions, learn strategies for creating a safe workplace, and understand the value of strategic partnerships.
