Pull-Up at Provident welcomes Durham-based small business owners and founders in all stages of their business journey to connect for networking, learning, and support. These convening events create an environment where entrepreneurs can turn to one another for knowledge and advice, and to gain access to relationships that will help them grow their businesses.

The Black Butterfly Network in Baltimore is doing incredible things and we are here for it! On Sunday, April 24, 2022 a special “Passing the Flame” gathering took place to celebrate the success of this first cohort while welcoming the next generation of inspiring entrepreneurs into their network.

The Black Wall Street Forward initiative is modeled on the pillars that made Durham’s original Black Wall Street successful, and aims to continue the legacy of this vibrant work by supporting and catalyzing local leaders, Black business owners, and champions.
