Bi-Monthly Membership Meetings
Bi-Monthly Membership Meetings are held the last Thursday of the month (February – November).

Career & Professional Development Series
Events targeted at increasing members’ business acumen for professional and career development while also expanding the members’ professional network.  Generally sponsored by local businesses and corporations, this series assists members in moving up the corporate ladder.

Corporate Reception
The Corporate Reception serves as the “premier” event to kick off the year where we recognize corporate partners for their contributions and support.  Relevant topic(s) for business professionals and students guarantee maximum attendance from the membership.  This event is held in the spring, usually in late April.

Holiday Soul Celebration
The annual holiday party is a joint effort among the local minority professional organizations.  This event is held in December of each year.

Leaders of Tomorrow® (LOT) Program & Golf Outing
LOT is a strategic mentoring program for high school students over the course of the academic school year.  Workshops are held on Saturdays.  The annual golf outing fundraiser is held in August.

Scholarship Breakfast
The scholarship breakfast is an opportunity to recognize the recipients of our annual undergraduate and graduate scholarships.  Sponsoring corporations underwrite this event and serve as co-hostesses to the students over an empowering and enlightening networking breakfast.

Entrepreneur Roundtable
As a part of our community involvement, this annual event is held in conjunction with the local Urban League of Indianapolis.  Current events and news topics, along with the state of Black America, provides the subject matter.  This event is traditionally held in November.

A View From The Top
Born as a result of a brainstorming session with one of our corporate partners, Praxair, A View From The Top showcases prominent Indianapolis business professionals as they detail their rise to the top.  This “premier” event is an annual event, held at the Skyline Club, in October.
