As pride month is approaching this June, the Austin LGBT Chamber of Commerce and North Texas LGBT Chamber are teaming up on Thursday, May 27, to speak on how corporate America interacts with LGBT consumers and if some companies’ allyship is genuine or questionable.
Pride across Texas is an open event that gives participants opportunities for networking amongst LGBT allies and speakers.
“We do these quarterly as a way to connect all our Texas LGBT Chamber members and share information, connections and opportunities,” CEO of Austin LGBT Chamber Tina Cannon said.
Speakers Valerie Salinas and Katie Martell will be addressing corporate America and how it can be improved upon regarding authenticity toward the LGBT community.
“This one is extra special as we are leading into Pride month, this [event] speaks [on] corps and brands and how they engage with the LGBT consumer in an authentic and intentional way and provides examples – both positive and those that need to improve,” Cannon said.
Pride across Texas will be held on Thursday, May 27 at 4 p.m. Participants can register on the Austin LGBT Chamber website:
