Our participation in the Airport Concessionaires Accelerator Program earned us a certificate recently. As participants in the inaugural session of the Airport Minority Advisory Council program, we were given the chance to discuss the aspects of it that we found most valuable. The highlight of the event for us was making relationships in preparation for joining the Airport Minority Advisory Council. We also gave a demonstration of our skills at the graduation ceremony. The AMAC National Office Team traveled to Atlanta to listen to speeches from each member of our cohort. AMAC member Randy Hazelton, the special guest speaker, made inspirational remarks. The accelerator program was in conjunction with ACE | Access to Capital for Entrepreneurs and Morehouse College.
