By 2044, the Nation’s prosperity will rely even more on minorities, the fastest growing segment of the population.  Entrepreneurship is a sure pathway to wealth creation and a thriving national economy.  Today, U.S. minority business enterprises represent 29% of all firms but only 11% have paid employees.
