Black Business Networking Tour 2025

Celebrating Culture, Innovation, and Legacy in Montgomery, Moore, Randolph, Richmond, and Stanly Counties

More Than an Event—It’s a Movement

The Black Business Networking Tour brings together Black-owned businesses, community leaders, and entrepreneurs across five rural counties: Montgomery, Moore, Stanly, Richmond, and Randolph.

Each stop highlights local success stories, business resources, networking opportunities, and a live podcast experience.

The tour culminates with the Black Business Sneaker Gala on October 11, 2025, where we celebrate excellence, elevate stories, and honor legacy.
