Hello, my name is Aurora N. Dixon, and I am a results-driven entrepreneur, event expert, and community advocate with a proven track record of success. My journey includes founding The Necessities Company, a thriving business that achieved such recognition and growth that I was invited to appear on Shark Tank.
I bring extensive experience in creating and executing high-impact events, having hosted sold-out pop-ups and served as a vendor at expos, where I delivered engaging experiences that left lasting impressions. These opportunities have honed my ability to attract diverse audiences, foster connections, and drive results—skills that translate directly to maximizing sponsor visibility and engagement.
My passion for community service fuels everything I do. Beyond business, I have championed initiatives that uplift underserved populations, bridging gaps and creating opportunities where they are most needed. This dedication to impact has earned me a reputation for reliability, innovation, and leadership.
The NC Business Expo 2025 is a premier event that embodies the power of connection, with 300+ vendors, a youth zone, pitch competitions, workshops, and more. Sponsors like you are essential to its success, and I am uniquely positioned to amplify your brand’s presence.

By supporting me, you are investing in a dynamic partner who knows how to deliver results, enhance visibility, and create meaningful connections that will drive ROI for your brand. Let’s work together to make this year’s Expo an unforgettable success.
