The 2021 Forum & Expo will feature welcoming remarks from Penn President Amy Gutmann, followed by Wharton Dean Erika H. James, who will lead a discussion with Janice Bryant Howroyd, chief executive officer of ActOne Group—the largest privately held, minority-woman-owned personnel company founded in the United States—on the critically important socioeconomic benefits of diverse and inclusive workplaces. The Forum will be followed by the Expo, also virtual, and will bring together local and diverse suppliers to showcase their services among Penn’s community of buyers. Local agencies and organizations also will be on hand to celebrate supplier diversity and showcase their resources available to local, diverse, and small businesses.
