As the Association of Black Cardiologists (ABC) approaches its 50th anniversary in November 2024, it has initiated a year-long series of forward-thinking events starting with the “Honoring Our Past, Creating Our Future” Summit on January 30, 2024. This seminal event convened over 70 leaders from diverse sectors, including the federal government, the pharmaceutical industry, medical device companies, patient advocacy groups, key academic institutions, and major medical associations. The Summit highlighted ABC’s ongoing commitment to the elimination of cardiovascular health inequalities and advance health equity, reinforcing existing innovative strategies – and highlighting new opportunities – that build collaborative pathways for a healthier future.
