Refusing to allow the economy’s turmoil to deter their ambitions, this prized group—announced at the black Enterprise Entrepreneurs Conference + Expo, hosted by General Motors and ExxonMobil in Detroit—bested their competitors by seeking innovation, streamlining strategies, and, above all, refusing stagnation.
