The All-in-One Networking Platform for Black Women
We are officially closing the doors on one of the most impactful movements for women. Since 2018, BlkWomenHustle® has served as the global networking platform for Black Women entrepreneurs, professionals, and creatives.
From day one, we’ve created significant experiences and opportunities that positioned our collective community of 100,000+ Black Women to secure the knowledge, community engagement, revenue, and skills to become the most sought-after and highest paid.
The Impact of BlkWomenHustle®
We built a community that extends beyond digital connections, uniting visionaries who support one another in remarkable ways.
The impact of BlkWomenHustle® has led to countless life-changing opportunities, including:
• Contract opportunities secured for service-based freelancers across multiple industries
• Retail placement and activation opportunities that have generated thousands of dollars in revenue for small, product-based businesses
• In-person entrepreneurial workshops throughout the East Coast to source business funding, build financial literacy, and provide actionable tactics to successfully sustain businesses
• Women landing speaking engagements, interviews, and press placements in major publications, including ESSENCE, Rolling Out, and our very own EMOIR
• Free and affordable business courses and workshops hosted to improve the operations, profit, and longevity of businesses
• Corporations discovering “the most impressive talent pool” for their employment opportunities
• Placement on our top-ranked podcast to inspire, inform, and elevate thousands of listeners
• Local masterminds established by women attending and meeting at a BlkWomenHustle event
• Thousands of connections made through the creation of the BlkWomenHustle App
• The installation of our “Black Women Entrepreneurs to Watch” list, sparking a mirrored movement for other platforms to amplify the recognition of Black Women
Above all, it’s remained one of the most authentic, safe spaces for Black Women to find their people— 1 of 1.
As we close this chapter, we want to thank each and every member, sponsor, and partner who made this journey possible. Together, we’ve created a movement that has shaped countless lives and built connections that will last a lifetime.
This has been one of the most life-changing journeys that will forever remain embedded in the hearts and minds of women around the world. There is still so much ahead and the work, connections, and sisterhood will not end here.
It is our hope that you will continue supporting the fellow Black Women-owned communities that exist, because our presence is needed now more than ever.
It has been a tremendous honor to serve and be in community with you all.
Endless gratitude,
Lashawn Dreher
