The Wealth Exchange:
Business -Finance- Networking


Join us for an evening designed to connect business owners, entrepreneurs, and professionals with practical financial education, strategies, and resources.

The Wealth Exchange goes beyond simply making money—we're creating space to have important conversations about what business owners can do with it.

We'll explore The Secure ACT 2.0, retirement planning, financial management, tax strategies, succession planning, and opportunities available to business owners. This includes retirement-plan incentives and tax credits that many entrepreneurs may not realize are available to them.
Whether you're an established business owner, building your first company, or simply looking to strengthen your financial knowledge, you're welcome in the room.

What to expect: Financial Education • Business Resources • Practical Strategies • Networking • Community Connections • Music • Cash Bar • Access to Food Vendors

Tuesday October 20, 2026 6:00 PM – 8:30 PM

Our Story

Keys to Black Wealth (K2BW) and Keys to black Health (K2BH), 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.

Our Why

The Community Represents… Highest Crime Rate, Highest Incarceration Rate, Highest Infant Mortality Rate, Highest Poverty Rate, AND THE LEAST TANGIBLE WEALTH OF ANY RACIAL GROUP IN THE UNITED STATES = ROOT OF THE PROBLEM. According to economists, the racial wealth gap is widening as the typical Black family has virtually no wealth. In 2019, the median white household held $188,200 in wealth -7.8 times that of the typical Black household. ($24,100)

Our Solution

To empower the community with tangible resources such as education, mentorship & programing.
