On January 29, 2021, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the National Association of Corporate Directors (NACD) hosted Equality of Opportunity In Action: Accelerating Board Diversity. 

The U.S. Chamber and NACD have partnered to promote and accelerate diversity in America’s corporate boardrooms and to create increased opportunities for Black business executives and leaders to positively contribute to the economy through board service. The Board Diveristity Accelerator is committed to addressing the lack of board diversity identifying, preparing, and connecting 250 Black business executives to public and private board opportunities by the end of 2022. Learn more about the  initiative here.
