In September, the Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA) will host its annual National Minority Enterprise Development (MED) Week conference. The conference celebrates the outstanding accomplishments of minority-owned companies and presents informational sessions and programming; offering interactive networking sessions to generate new connections and fresh perspectives. MED Week also features an awards ceremony where individuals and organizations are honored for exceptional commitments and contributions to minority business growth. In fact, the MED Week Awards are the highest national recognition an minority-owned firm can receive from the U.S. Department of Commerce.
This year, President Joe Biden will issue a proclamation declaring September 18-24 as 'National Minority Enterprise Week' to coincide with MBDA's 2022 National MED Week. The MED Week Conference. presented again this year in a virtual format, centers around the theme of "Reimagining Opportunity" and the endless possibilities ahead for the minority business community.
