Refugee Ally Collective: Empowering Refugee Entrepreneurs

Join us for evening of hearing the inspirational journeys of five remarkable speakers, refugee entrepreneurs who have built organizations that assist the journey of refugee entrepreneurs.  Learn from former refugees who have launched and operate successful businesses and allied NGOs that provide training and resources for entrepreneurs.

Refugees are a valued resource for their host communities. In the United States, they launch more new business per capita than those born here. As we hear so often, refugees are some of the most entrepreneurial and hardworking people anywhere.
