The Black BIC web site has received accolades from local, immigrant and national organizations.

“The Black BIC website is a comprehensive toolbox of resources, information, videos and articles designed to ensure the success of black business owners,” said Dr. Eric Lee, President of the Black Chamber of Commerce of Colorado.  “This is a valuable resource we will use to further assist and educate our membership and the Black business community.”

“The Minority Business RoundTable strongly believes in the value of partnerships like the one we have established with the Black BIC and the Hispanic BIC (www.hispanicbic.org) ” stated Roger A. Campos, President and CEO of the Minority Business RoundTable.

“It broadens our collective resources to help and assist more minority-- African American, Hispanic, Asian, and Native American business owners.”

The Black BIC will be reaching out to more local and national grassroots organizations to further assist aspiring Black Entrepreneurs in owning their own business and leading the economic development of their communities.
