HCLS co-hosts an online monthly Roundtable focusing on a local business owned by a Person of Color in Howard County. The owner shares the experiences and challenges they face as a local business owner. Learn what it takes to start your own successful business. Ask questions of people who own a local business. Maybe it will inspire you to start your own! The discussion is moderated by Nat Alston, Chair and Founder of the Ujamaa Business Roundtable. The Business Roundtable normally meets on the 4th Tuesday of the month. Includes time for Q&A.
