The CCBSA Supplier Skills Summits are a series of workshops which consist of a mixture of educational, skills development, as well as business leadership content. The intention is to impart business development, management, and leadership skills for entrepreneurs to implement in their businesses immediately. The theme for 2023 is: "Innovation Driven Growth."

The "Access to Markets" Bootcamp is an exclusive networking event that connects SMEs with senior business executives of South African corporations to facilitate a dialogue of opportunities in supply chain and ESD. The intention is for suppliers to hear from other corporates who are looking for reliable, credible Black suppliers of various products and services, as many of them tend to rely on one or two corporates in their businesses, therefore creating untenable concentration risk.
