Gary L. Cunningham, President and CEO of Meda, will discuss the work Meda is doing to reach more entrepreneurs of color at all stages of the business lifecycle through a number of new initiatives and partnerships focused on helping these entrepreneurs succeed. Event includes breakfast.

Access to capital, access to markets and access to trusted advisors are proven methods to increase minority participation in the business landscape. Meda, a minority business support organization based in the Twin Cities, is the leading driver of this effort in the region. Since its inception almost 50 years ago, Meda has worked with entrepreneurs of color to grow and scale their businesses and has assisted some of the top performing minority businesses in Minnesota, including Shaw Lundquist Associates Inc., Knock Inc., Metropolitan Transportation Network and more.
