In today’s dynamic era where entrepreneurship is celebrated and diversity is increasingly championed, the rise of Black-owned businesses stands out as a beacon of progress. According to a 2023 survey by Bank of America, the rate of Black business ownership surged by an impressive 38% compared to pre-pandemic levels. This surge not only reflects resilience but also signals a significant shift in the business landscape, one marked by innovation and opportunity.
As Black-led businesses flourish, the pursuit of innovative solutions becomes vital. To stay competitive, these businesses are increasingly leveraging digital tools to streamline operations, improve customer experiences and drive growth. However, amid this wave of promise, challenges in digital transformation persist, particularly for Minority and Black-owned businesses. “We understand that companies in general are challenged by a tight economy and are hard-pressed to keep up with the pace of change in business applications, artificial intelligence (AI), cloud, networking, storage and compute,” says Rick D Rollerson I, Founder, Senior Principal Consultant and Managing Partner.
