The China Black Business Summit (CBBS)
CBBS is dedicated to empowering, connecting, and celebrating Black excellence. The first event of its kind in China, it aims to bring together Black business owners, professionals, and allies.
It is a platform to showcase achievements, share stories, and inspire future success within the Black business community in China. It offers an opportunity for knowledge exchange, collaboration, and celebration of diversity in the business landscape.Â
The summit is designed to create a safe space—a place where we can share, learn, and grow as we get to know each other’s businesses and build a community of trust and mutual support.
