Music executive and entrepreneur Matthew Knowles brings a deeply personal perspective to the urgent conversation around Black men’s health. After surviving his own battle with breast cancer, Knowles has become a passionate advocate for awareness, early detection, and proactive care. In this intimate fireside chat, he opens up about his journey, the stigma that too often keeps Black men from seeking help, and the collective work needed to confront a health crisis that claims far too many lives. His message is clear: protecting our health is protecting our future.

This Blackweek discussion is proudly sponsored by Novartis. We deeply grateful for their generous support and steadfast commitment to advancing critical health conversations, all in service of their mission to improve and extend lives.
