SUMMARY:A.G. Gaston Conference 2026: “Legacy\, Leverage and Liberation: Accumulating Assets that Lead to Wealth”
DESCRIPTION:Empowering African Americans to excel in entrepreneurship and business ownership for over 20 years.\nThe A.G. Gaston Conference is the place to connect business owners\, community leaders\, and all who believe in African American empowerment. Join us for a day filled with information to empower and inspire you to change your future. \nAbout A.G. Gaston\nArthur George Gaston is not only the inspiration of this annual event but directly inspired many business people in Alabama. He succeeded as a serial entrepreneur and empowered other African Americans during a time when the nation legalized their oppression. Arthur George (A.G.) Gaston owned several successful businesses in Alabama during the Jim Crow law time period. He amassed a fortune worth more than $40 million from a business empire spanning communications\, real estate\, and insurance. Remembered in the Alabama Academy of Honor\, the Birmingham Hall of Fame\, and as Black Enterprise Magazine’s “Entrepreneur of the Century\,” Gaston’s contributions to the community remain to this day.
