Business leaders discuss development opportunities for minority business enterprises.

The growth of African American firms is outpacing that of non-minority firms 3 to 1, but African American firms are not sharing equally in the benefits of profit, job creation, and opportunity. Shelton Russell, publisher of American DBE Magazine, and Eric Watson, president & CEO of the Carolinas-Virginia Minority Supplier Development Council provide insight on black business development.
