reSURGEnce NYC Conference Invites Entrepreneurs Worldwide to Expand Access to Capital, Contracts and Global Markets

NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, November 5, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — For business owners ready to grow, access to funding, contracts, and the right relationships can make all the difference. The reSURGEnce NYC Conference 2026 will bring entrepreneurs, investors, and institutional and community leaders together on Wednesday, November 18, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., to explore pathways for business growth across local, national, and international markets.

The conference will take place at The Lee C. Bollinger Forum at Columbia University, 605 West 125th Street in West Harlem. Participants from around the world are welcome.

Centered on the theme “Decreasing Barriers by Increasing Access,” reSURGEnce helps business owners better understand opportunities, prepare to pursue them, and build relationships that support long-term growth. The initiative emphasizes expanding economic participation for Black and African American entrepreneurs, women-owned businesses, and underrepresented communities.

The New York conference will highlight three areas central to business development:

Government contracts: Explore public-sector procurement opportunities and how to prepare a business to compete.

Funding and capital: Learn about funding strategies and how to position a business for investment.

Global markets: Explore cross-border partnerships, new customers, and connections between Africa, the United States, and other international markets.

For entrepreneurs across New York and the tri-state area, the conference offers a chance to look beyond their existing networks and consider what their next stage of growth requires. For international participants, it provides a setting to explore U.S. business connections and contribute to a broader exchange of ideas, resources, and opportunities.

Led by Rev. Dennis Dillon, Founder and Global Chair of reSURGEnce, the initiative brings together business, government, corporate, faith and community networks around a shared goal: strengthening businesses and the communities they serve.

Building on its recent conference in Durban, South Africa, reSURGEnce will bring its international focus to New York, continuing conversations about trade, investment and stronger business relationships between Africa and the United States. The November 18 gathering offers those who could not attend Durban a chance to join the movement, explore cross-border connections, and identify practical next steps for business growth.

Entrepreneurs, small business owners, investors, corporate representatives, nonprofit leaders, and faith institutions are invited.

Join the movement. Bring your business cards, your questions, and your vision for what comes next.
