The Next Wave Black History Month Summit

The Next Wave Black History Month Summit is a forward-thinking celebration of Black excellence, innovation, and opportunity—centered on preparing our communities for the future of work and creativity. Hosted by Assemblymember Chantel Jackson, this summit brings together thought leaders, innovators, educators, entrepreneurs, and creatives for a day of inspiration, education, and empowerment.

This year’s summit shines a spotlight on the emerging opportunities in Artificial Intelligence, content creation, production, and video editing—industries rapidly shaping the next generation of Black leadership and economic power. Through interactive panels, skill-building workshops, and networking sessions, participants will explore how technology and creativity intersect to open doors for new careers, business ventures, and digital storytelling.

From understanding how AI is transforming industries to mastering tools for media production and online branding, attendees will leave equipped with the knowledge and connections to thrive in a digital-first economy.

Rooted in the legacy of Black innovation and resilience, the Next Wave Black History Month Summit is not just about honoring history—it’s about shaping the future. Together, we are building pathways for young people, creators, and entrepreneurs to lead the next wave of progress, culture, and change.
