Black women don't just influence industries. We build them, transform them, and set the standard for what's next. This year, ESSENCE Black Women in Business, sponsored by L’Oréal Groupe, celebrates four extraordinary women whose vision and influence continue to move industries forward. From fashion and technology to advertising, beauty, and media, Anifa Mvuemba, Ayiko Broyard, Sarah Curtis Henry, and Tamron Hall are redefining what leadership looks like on their own terms.
