The achievements of African American women were highlighted at the Annual Salute to Black Women sponsored by the Black Business Association (BBA).
The virtual event, held March 30, featured a special tribute to the late Gwen A. Moore, who served 16 years in the California State Assembly and more than a decade on the BBA Board of Directors, both as chair and as a member.
The theme was “Valiant Women of the Vote: Refusing to be Silenced.” Elected officials, business executives and community leaders were among the people joining BBA President Earl “Skip” Cooper II in recognizing Moore and other females who have contributed to securing women’s rights in America. Gwendolyn A. Goodman, public relations director of the Black Women’s Network, was the emcee for the occasion.
After it was clear that finding a buyer for its set-top and modem business was not in the cards, CommScope pushed ahead last week with a plan to spin out its Home Networks division and turn it into a separately traded public company.
The story of Home Networks likely is not over. Last week s announcement gives CommScope nearly a year to execute the spin-off, leaving ample time for the company and its board to explore other, possibly more lucrative options
that might surface along the way. That, to me, signals that CommScope would still be game for some old-fashioned M&A.
