Empowering LI's Black-owned businesses. Connecting communities across Nassau & Suffolk County, New York. At Black Long Island Business Network, we believe that visibility drives opportunity—and Black-owned businesses deserve to be seen, supported, and celebrated.

Black Long Island Business Network was founded by Godson Michel in 2025. Ultimately, his mission is to amplify Long Island's Black-owned businesses by providing a powerful platform for visibility, connection, and economic empowerment. We’re here to make it easier for consumers to discover, support, and invest in Black entrepreneurship—one business at a time.
