Highlights included a luncheon with keynote speaker Dr. Randall Pinkett, President and CEO of BCT Partners and winner of NBC’s The Apprentice. 
Pinkett spoke on the importance of being able to grow and scale in today’s economy and how partnership is key.
A number of thought provoking workshops were offered, including a roundtable which brought together cross-industry perspectives on trends changing the various industries, the driving forces dictating their purchasing decisions, the factors that are influencing innovation, and the opportunities where WBEs can become a part of their supply chain.

Speaking of networking, Wexler made some great connections during the Meet & Greet, liaising alongside top corporate players such as Bausch & Lomb, Apple, Procter & Gamble and the Kellogg Company.
The conference ended on a high note with the annual Salute Gala, followed by a final post Salute Celebration.
