PARTICIPATION EXPECTATION
By submitting this form, participating brands acknowledge that MOBFEST™ is designed as an immersive experience centered on Black ownership, entrepreneurship, and community.
Brands are encouraged to engage with attendees beyond transactions—sharing experiences, insights, and encouragement when appropriate—to help create an environment where attendees leave inspired, informed, and empowered.
Examples may include demonstrations, tastings, consultations, customizations, hands-on activities, workshops, live recordings, content creation stations, creative installations, and interactive experiences related to beauty, wellness, food and beverage, fashion, art, and professional services.
We're NOT asking you to become a coach or consultant—simply to contribute to an environment where people leave informed, encouraged, and empowered. This expectation reflects the spirit of MOBFEST™ and applies to all approved participating brands.
