LTC is not organized to duplicate your existing efforts but rather to penetrate the sphere of influence that may not currently be possessed with minorities and other socially disadvantaged classes. The program takes a multi-faceted approach that relies on the authentic, value-added relationships that White has developed with regional, national and international agencies. LTC anticipates delivering multiple impressions to more than 500 qualified leads annually with following multimodal opportunities. As a partner, the value proposition that LTC offers is the collection, tabulation and analysis of demographic data for all impressions made via the LTC program, immediately providing you with insight to assess the ROI generated from this partnership.

About LaTanya

Best known for her leadership with 71 Proof, the premier beverage catering service of the Southeast, LaTanya White is a servant leader at heart. She is a member of the 27th class of Leadership Tallahassee and serves on the board for the Big Bend Minority Chamber of Commerce as well as the Foundation for Leon County Schools. White is the founder of Concept Creative Group, the parent company of 71 Proof and CCG Consulting, a firm helping small and start-up businesses move to the next level. She has served as a Visiting Instructor in the School of Business and Industry at Florida A&M University where she incorporates active learning strategies in the Entrepreneurship and Management courses she teaches. White has served on the judges’ panel for

organizations providing $90,000 in funding to local businesses. She also volunteers with the United Way of the Big Bend’s Community Human Services Partnership Grant; her participation has resulted in awarding nearly $500,000 in grant funds to outcomes-based organizations using local government funding. Her role as a Professor of Entrepreneurship has led to her first foray into micro-funding by getting outstanding idea concepts through the path of commercialization. She will be pursuing her doctoral degree in Strategic Management and will be focusing her research on Minority Propensity for Risk and Innovation. White's personal mission and motto is "Educate. Engage. Execute".
