Scharf's appearance at the International Leadership Summit comes

Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE: WFC), and the T.D. Jakes
Group, which includes T.D. Jakes Real Estate Ventures, LLC
(TDJREV), TDJ Enterprises (TDJE) and T.D. Jakes Foundation (TDJF).
Over the next 10 years, the partnership between these organizations
could result in up to $1 billion in
capital and financing from Wells Fargo, as well as grants from the
Wells Fargo Foundation, with the goal of revitalizing
neighborhoods, fostering economic opportunity and creating
long-term change in communities most in need.
The partnership marks the first of its kind in driving long-term
transformational impact over the next decade. Jakes spoke to CBS
Mornings yesterday about how the partnership will create mixed
income opportunities and upward
mobility.
The International Leadership Summit continues to be one of the
most transformative leadership conferences as a standard-bearer for
values-based business learning and professional development. This
year's summit is being presented by Wells Fargo and is being
held in Orlando, May 4-6 at
the Orange County Convention
Center. It aims to equip leaders, visionaries and entrepreneurs
with the latest resources and expertise to help leaders navigate
these volatile times.
Preceding the annual gathering, on May
3, a one-day intensive business accelerator program called
Good Soil will be offered by TDJ Enterprises and made possible
through a partnership with Stand Together Foundation. This will
serve as a platform and clearing house for business leaders,
influencers, and would-be entrepreneurs to inspire and proliferate
opportunities for scaled black entrepreneurs and small businesses
in diverse communities. The event marks the launch of The Good Soil
Movement, an ongoing program to catalyze and support diverse
business owners via a free, private app and a year-round schedule
of live and virtual events to provide tools, resources and thought
