The ACDBE program is facing myriad challenges ranging from the rising cost of doing business to concessionaire consolidation. Perhaps more worrisome, the entire ACDBE program could face an existential threat down the road given that the U.S. Supreme Court has signaled a possible end to business supplier diversity and workplace DEI programs. This panel will discuss how to put the ACDBE program on better footing and secure its role for the long term.
