Section 2 (AKA About)

Keys to Black Wealth (KTBW), a grassroots, mission driven Enterprise founded in 2019 in response to the expanding racial wealth gap and the lack of generational wealth transferred by Black and Brown families across the diaspora. By infusing edutainment (education + entertainment), multimedia, and technology, Keys to Black Wealth delivers events, education, mentorship, and resources, designed to help individuals build and sustain generational wealth.

The Keys to Black Wealth mission has attracted the support of Black wealth leaders such as Master P, Romeo, David Banner, Omarosa, LisaRaye, Ray J and the Norwood family, and over 200 influencers, business owners, financial professionals, and wealth creators internationally.

The next KTBW Annual Juneteenth Experience is set for June 19, 2021. This will be a hybrid networking event held virtually and in person (Columbus, Ohio), featuring Guest speaker John Hope Bryant.
