About The ESSENCE Girls United (GU) Disruptor Summit
This year’s summit will be a safe space for young Black women, girls, and gender-expansive youth to come together and fellowship for a day filled with panels, networking, activations, and more.
“The Era of Disruption” serves as this year’s theme, and an invitation to Zillenials to continue to use their voices to break the mold by utilizing their individual paths, ideas, and trends to celebrate all aspects of the Black experience.
As the leading destination for young Black women, ESSENCE Girls United, is bringing notable speakers, influencers, creatives, and musical performers to the 2023 summit such as dynamic sister-duo Jordyn Woods and Jodie Woods, South African singer-songwriter Tyla, “If Not for My Girls” cast members BIA, Muni Long, Pretty Vee, alongside many more!
This year’s GU Disruptor Summit will touch down in the ATL for a full day of conversations, workshops, and on-site activities such as photo experiences throughout, the kick-off of GU Office Hours, speed mentoring sessions to get connected with key industry players, and the Soko Marketplace where attendees can shop and support a mix of Black-owned businesses.
The one-day event is set to take place at the PC&E sound stage (2235 Defoor Hills Rd. NW, Atlanta, GA 30318) from 10:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. ET.
