GU Summit 2023 Welcomes You To The Era Of Disruption

We're coming to Atlanta with new rebellious energy
GU Summit 2023 Welcomes You To The Era Of Disruption
By Kenyatta Victoria · Updated May 1, 2024

The 2023 GU Disruptor Summit is back on the road to Atlanta! Did you miss us? It seems like we were making our mark yesterday and letting the world know we’re the blueprint forever.

Now that everyone is catching up on the wave we’ve created, it’s time for disruption.

As Zillennials continue to use their voices, Girls United’s new theme, “Era Of Disruption,” will become a pulse for those spearheading their paths, ideas, and trends, breaking the mold of what society deems acceptable.

Celebrating all aspects of the Black experience, those in their “Era of Disruption” offer fresh perspectives outside the standard conversations that are constantly recycled.

This year, we’re focusing on all aspects of Gen Z disrupting the status quo of society unapologetically. Through elements of Representation, Education, Performance, and Politics, we’re hoping summit goers discover their inner disruptors.

Entering a new era of futurism, we see Gen Z showcasing the evolution of what representation means and going against what society deems acceptable.

In addition to the impactful conversations we’re curating, we’re allowing attendees to take control of their careers through our mentorship sessions.

Join us in an intimate conversation with notable professionals, from media mavens to entrepreneurs, to discuss the shift in how to make an impact in your field.

As this generation continues to break the glass ceiling within their ventures, they constantly create new trends. With special panelists, we’ll highlight how they maintain their creative pursuits and make an impact through disruption.

So get ready for a revolt and constant rule-breaking the GU way in Atlanta this fall. We’ll see you on November 11, 2023.
