An audience of 200 educators, business recruiters, and DEI professionals gathered at Suffolk on September 29 for the Center for Career Equity, Development & Success’s first-ever Career Equity Conference.


Equity is an Economic Imperative
“Talking about equity is not just a moral argument, it is not just a social experiment—it is an economic imperative,” Segun Idowu, chief of economic opportunity and inclusion for the City of Boston, told the audience gathered for Suffolk University’s second conference.
