Among the highlights Summit attendees will experience are:

SOLIDARITY RALLY

Prior to the Summit we will host a solidarity rally to show support for Florida’s LGBTQ businesses in collaboration with our Florida affiliates and LGBTQ business owners. The event is designed to show the strength of Florida’s thriving LGBTQ business economy - something decision-makers need to hear and see in full force! Together we will take a stand against harmful legislation in Florida and across the U.S. that specifically targets our transgender, gender non-conforming, and non-binary (TGNCNB) community members, as well as other anti-LGBT legislation sweeping the nation.

“This rally and Summit are further proof that NGLCC cares about my TGNCNB siblings and me, as well as our businesses, in these still very difficult times. As a trans business owner in Florida, I look forward to meeting with NGLCC corporate partners and fellow Certified LGBTBE® suppliers to ensure my business and our community can survive and thrive.” -Ashley T Brundage, Founder & Author, Empowering Differences (Tampa, FL)

IMPACTFUL PLENARIES, BREAKOUTS, AND MATCHMAKERS

The NGLCC Summit will deliver innovative leadership programming as well as networking and engagement opportunities for LGBT and allied business leaders. Cutting-edge educational programs include inspiring keynote speakers, an affiliate chamber educational track, one-on-one Matchmaker meetings between suppliers and Fortune 500 companies, and much more.
