Experts from across the country joined Samuel C. Thompson Jr., professor and Arthur Weiss Distinguished Faculty Scholar at Penn State Law in University Park, and event co-chair Sabrina Conyers, partner at Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough, for a live discussion on minority business development. The event included the perspectives of lawyers, economists, bankers, business school deans, venture capitalists, private equity investors, tax policy experts, and entrepreneurs.
