🔥 Meet the Speakers | NGBC Founders Forum 🔥

This isn’t a stage filled with people speaking from theory.
It’s a room filled with founders, creatives, business leaders, and changemakers who have built, failed, learned, pivoted, grown, and kept going.

From entrepreneurship and personal branding to creativity, leadership, resilience, advocacy, and business growth, our speakers are bringing real stories, real lessons, and real conversations.

No corporate jargon.
No sugar-coated success stories.

Just honest insights from people who have lived the journey.
If you’re an aspiring entrepreneur, founder, creative, student, or professional looking to learn from those who have built something meaningful, this is the room you need to be in.

Join us for an afternoon of networking, learning, inspiration, and founder-led conversations designed to help you grow both personally and professionally.

🎟 Tickets are officially LIVE.
