Forté Diversity Day

The event focuses on the lived experiences of women business leaders who have historically been underrepresented in business. Specifically, speakers who identify as African American, Black, Hispanic, Latinx, and/or Native American will be featured.

Join us at this free symposium to network with motivated peers, connect with mission-aligned organizations, and explore how the MBA can help you rise up in the business world.
