The industry challenge: identifying expert multicultural talent to participate in industry conferences, seminars, webinars, podcasts, and discussions. The answer: the formation of  THE APEX—a Multicultural Speakers Bureau. Powered by the AAF and ADCOLOR, THE APEX will fill the void of missing multicultural perspectives of those who work within the industry every day. It will be a source for organizers who want to authentically present these vital voices in their thought leadership initiatives.
