When funding is limited, collaboration becomes the most valuable currency. This hybrid workshop/webinar introduces sweat equity — the practice of exchanging ownership or equity for time, talent, or expertise — as a powerful way to help entrepreneurs attract skilled professionals and professionals gain ownership opportunities in promising ventures.

The session also marks the launch of Black Connect’s new TeamBuilders program, a platform designed to match entrepreneurs with skilled professionals who want to contribute their expertise to growing businesses. Whether you’re looking to join a startup team or strengthen your own, TeamBuilders helps you connect, collaborate, and grow.

You’ll Learn:

  • What sweat equity is and when it makes sense for entrepreneurs

  • How to structure fair and legally sound equity agreements

  • How professionals can leverage skills for equity and ownership

  • How TeamBuilders connects entrepreneurs and professionals for growth
