iCAMP LIVE! @ SBE NYC 2025
Wednesday, May 7th
I enjoyed my 2nd visit to the SBE at the Javits Center, still very near to where I used to live in Manhattan. Wow! Interviews galore! And the Happy Hour experience where I spied Jordan, an author, there. She shared sentiments with me that made me tear up. The gratitude she showed me for helping her showcase her business and brand by interviewing her was why I started iCAMP. (Her interview here!). Click on Cierra's photo to hear her testimony.

I enjoyed my first visit to the SBE at the Javits Center, very near to where I used to live in Manhattan. Wow! What great changes. I met many fellow entrepreneurs there. In photos are UGGS Founder Brian Smith and Terry Rice, Entrepreneur Magazine staff writer, keynote speakers where I (literally) had front row seats! An inspirational experience. So much so that I went to the one in LA right after.

We will listen and impart the knowledge we have obtained directly from our lives - growing up in the 70s and breaking barriers to allow for a less color-discriminating (not color-blind) society.Both Kimberly and Rev.
