About AAEW!

The African American Empowerment Weekend (AAEW) is a 3 day program with sessions designed to empower African-American men, women and children as they strive to become entrepreneurs, as well as assist current entrepreneurs to excel and build a lasting legacy.

The weekend includes educational seminars, workshops and panel discussions that incorporate strategies for maintaining a successful business, family, life and health. This event is designed not only to allow you to network with other like-minded African Americans, but also to educate, inspire, challenge, encourage, provide legacy building tools and empower one another to move and advance in business while sustaining family and health. Our vision is for everyone to leave this event with a plan of action and purpose to guide them throughout the year.

Leadership

AAEW is led by Executive Director Theresa Royal and a team of professionals who fully embrace the mission of this organization.
