In July 2024, we brought together a panel of successful QTBIPOC (Q***r, Trans, Black, Indigenous, People of Color) entrepreneurs who have launched their own creative enterprises. This engaging session delved into their unique journeys, the challenges they’ve overcome, and the strategies they’ve employed to achieve success in the creative industry.

Our panelists shared their personal stories and offered invaluable tips and practical advice to aspiring entrepreneurs. Whether you’re in the early stages of brainstorming your business idea or ready to take the plunge into entrepreneurship, we hope this episode will provide you with some insights and tools needed to turn your creative vision into reality.
