Collaborating at Work

The State of Black Women-Owned Businesses Report®:

Black women are starting businesses at the fastest clip of any cohort of entrepreneurs in the United States, yet are generating an average annual revenue of $24k (vs. $142.0 among all women-owned businesses and $218.8k for white women-owned businesses).

Closing the wealth gap for Black women entrepreneurs requires re-engineered approaches to financial solutions, education, and policy.
