Exciting developments in Evanston are paving the way for innovation and community support! The AUX, a wellness hub dedicated to nurturing small Black-owned businesses, is set to open its doors this Saturday in a newly renovated space that once processed vegetables. This 16,500-square-foot center embodies the spirit of community and connection, proving that entrepreneurial dreams can be realized despite the hurdles often faced by minority businesses.

Co-developers Tosha Wilson and Jacqui White’s personal journey—facing challenges in securing loans for their own business—has inspired a collaborative environment where Black entrepreneurs can thrive. The hub not only offers a variety of affordable commercial spaces for startups but also includes a much-needed cafe, a wellness collective, and various service-oriented businesses, all aimed at enhancing the economic ecosystem in the area.

With initiatives like these, it’s crucial for modern businesses to leverage customizable solutions that foster collaboration and support. At B1Thrive ThrivCloud, we’re committed to empowering Black-owned businesses through our fully customizable, cloud-based productivity tools designed with economic sovereignty in mind.

Join us in championing economic growth and sustainability! Let’s thrive together. #BlackOwnedBusiness #CommunitySupport #Entrepreneurship #B1Thrive #ThrivCloud #DigitalSovereignty
