During each event, 10 entrepreneurs will get the opportunity to showcase their business or startup to a group of investors and compete for a chance to receive startup capital that will help the business grow. The investments are being awarded in the form of low-interest loans, and in the amount(s) of $25,000 for first prize, $15,000 for second prize, and $10,000 for third prize. There will also be a fourth prize of $5,000 given to the “audience’s choice.”

NWI Connect and Revive Networking Event

In the fall of 2020, the Greater Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce (Indy Chamber) along with the Central Indiana Corporate Partnership (CICP) in collaboration with the Indianapolis Urban League launched Business Equity for Indy (BEI). Following a summer that witnessed a new level of awareness of the deep racial disparities that continue to confront Central Indiana and the country, as well as a devastating pandemic, BEI was created to grow a more inclusive business climate and build greater equity and economic opportunity for the Indy Region’s Black residents and people of color. The Indy Black Chamber is proud to be a partner of the BEI Procurement Roundtable.

Join us for an exciting day of mentorship, hands-on activities and networking as we strengthen the future of health care. Students (boys & girls in grades 3 through 12), parents, educators, healthcare professionals and community leaders are all welcome!

Headquartered in Indianapolis, Community Health Network has been deeply committed to the communities it serves since opening its first hospital, Community Hospital East, in 1956. Exceptional care, simply delivered, is what sets Community Health Network apart and what makes it a leading not-for-profit health care destination in central Indiana.

Black Men In White Coats started in 2013 in response to an alarming report that highlighted the decreasing number of black men applying to medical school. We have worked closely with medical schools, high schools, and physicians to provide inspiration and mentorship to our youth who may be interested in healthcare as a profession.

We are continuing this work in October by bringing students (boys & girls), educators, parents, physicians, and community leaders together for a full day summit! Over the course of the day, students will engage in hands-on activities and network with healthcare professionals from diverse backgrounds. The goal is to inspire and show students that there are people who look like them in this field, and if we can do it, they can do it.

**Continental Breakfast and Lunch will be provided***
