NASSAU, BAHAMAS – OWN Talks brought its 2024 session to life on Thursday night, continuing its mission to link Bahamian entrepreneurs and aspiring business owners with visionary leaders.

This year’s event, themed “Shift,” showcased a stellar lineup of speakers: NFL Hall of FAmer Ray Lewis, AI futurist Zack Kass, and Sebas Bastian, CEO of Island Luck and Wyse Technology GRoup.

They shared insights and inspiration, driving home the event’s core message of transformation and growth.

But this was much more than just a speaking event. To date, The OWN Foundation has awarded over $800,000 in grants.

After the final speaker concluded his presentation, attendees were given the exciting opportunity to claim their share of the foundation’s support.

Head of Brand, Events Loyalty & Rewards at Island Luck Carlo Ramsey is encouraging Bahamians to seize the opportunity.

Ramsey says the foundation is committed to empowering and inspiring budding entrepreneurs.
