Three winners from a pool of nine were announced this week at the conclusion of Columbiaâs first Virtual Black Business Expo and Pitch Exposition.
Anthony Johnson, Lashunda Glasgow and Moriah Proctor were named the winners of the competition hosted by Cory Crosbyâs Innovated Dreamz. The goal was to recognize entrepreneurs for their contributions to the city.
Johnson, first-place winner of $2,500, is owner of Columbia Supreme, which gives girls a chance to be on a basketball team.
âOne of the things I am most proud of about Columbia Supreme is the diversity,â said Johnson, who coaches the team. âThereâs kids from all walks of life that find things in common and are able to build a friendship.â
