Black-Tie Attire | Limited to 30 C-Level Executives & Board Directors
The Record — where Icons stand.
Deciding the Future of Corporate Black Men
Enter the Record — Limited to 30
An Evening Reserved for the Highest Tier of Leadership
In July 2026, thirty of the most accomplished corporate Black leaders — exclusively C-level executives and Board Directors — will convene in Las Vegas for a night unlike any other.
The BEM 2026 Corporate Icons Dinner is not a celebration of what has been achieved. It is a defining moment for what comes next. Here, in one room, the future of corporate Black men will be declared and set into motion.
This is not another dinner. It is an institution in the making — a private convocation reserved for those entrusted with the highest levels of decision-making power.
Icons are not appointed by others. Icons define themselves — and history records it.
The Grand Toast — honoring excellence and shared future.
The Architecture of Influence
Las Vegas provides the stage. The architecture belongs to us.
Every moment — from the champagne reception to the Corporate Icons Pledge — is designed to elevate dialogue, strengthen alliances, and inscribe presence into the permanent record of BEM.
Here, candid conversations move beyond introductions. Strategy is shared. Commitments are made. Influence is aligned.
The Icons Pledge — a decision inscribed in history.
The Flow of the Night
6:00 PM – Champagne Reception & Iconic Portraits
Step into black-tie formality. Be welcomed with champagne. Stand with peers for the official 2026 Corporate Icons Portrait — the visual record of the thirty men who answered the call.
7:00 – 9:00 PM – Multi-Course Dinner & The Icons Pledge
Dine with corporate leaders at the very top of their fields. Between courses, take part in the Corporate Icons Pledge — a solemn rite that marks your presence in the permanent record of BEM.
9:00 – 10:00 PM – Private Conversations
With the formal program complete, the atmosphere shifts. This final hour opens the space for confidential dialogue that transforms into board appointments, business ventures, and enduring alliances.
The Convocation — thirty men, one record.
Legacy-Level Impact
At Corporate Icons 2026, the dinner itself is not the purchase. The setting will be exquisite. The service, flawless. The food and wine, world-class.
What you are truly securing is your inscription into history.
