Welcome to URBN SOCIAL, a resource for cultural awareness and emphasis on business. We are dedicated to bridging the gap between those business owners and consumers who shop with purpose while highlighting businesses, entrepreneurship, networking, entertainment, news, events, and urban lifestyle worldwide.
Our mission is to inform, inspire and empower disproportionately marginalized businesses of color, helping them grow to their potential. Providing marketing, advertising, and promotional needs including collaborating with community organizations, corporations, and entrepreneurs internationally.
Tawny Finch is the Founder and CEO of URBN SOCIAL and has come a long way with a career in commercial real estate that spans over 15 years. She has mastered the art of conversing! Interviewing startup brands wanting to open their first brick-and-mortar location, lending unsolicited advice to moms and pops feeling neglected because their use is too "ethnic", finding creative ways such as social media, email marketing, and planning network events to collaborate with others in the industry. But through her tenure, she observed large corporations giving the community what they WANT instead of what we NEED, which is diversity.
Tawny set out to share the importance of economics and the value of education. Her reach goes beyond borders through her love of travel, covering numerous events, and interviewing influential people of color. She is determined to uplift and encourage the undervalued, and it begins with getting the conversation started.
