‘Empowered, challenged to take the next step’: These BIPOC businesses won pitch contest

NEW BEDFORD — With $2,750 worth of prizes up for grabs, seven local businesses pitched their hearts out at the Pitch Black competition on Thursday, hosted by EforAll and BuyBlackNB.

“We have these young entrepreneurs that are trying to create generational wealth for themselves,” said Samia Walker, executive director of EforAll SouthCoast.

“The winners tonight are judged on who’s going to have the most impact from this experience — who is really going to be pushed forward, empowered, challenged to take the next step.”
