On Tuesday, Aug 4, 2009 the Black Leadership Forum, Inc. and the National Conference of Black Mayors are hosting The Stimulus Bill and the Minority Contractor Seminar. This forum will act as a vehicle to inform minority business owners how to capitalize on the funds made available by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. The seminar will take place from 2:30 p.m. - 6:00 p.m., on the 8th floor of the NCRC Building, located at 727 15th St., NW, Washington, DC 20005.

The seminar is seeking to provide a forum for attendees to listen and speak to minority business owners who have successfully secured Stimulus funding, Recovery Act representatives from different agencies and members of the Congressional Black Caucus. Tim Reid (actor, comedian, director & entrepreneur) will act as the moderator for this event.

The four minority business owners highlighted represent a broad spectrum of areas that include hotel ownership, broadcasting, telecommunications, entertainment, construction and technology.
