The annual free breakfast and special tribute celebrating Dr. King is hosted by the Collin College Board of Trustees and Dr. Neil Matkin.

We will honor his legacy by focusing on these important issues through our speakers and have table discussions on how we can now act on the dream.
The Business and Information Expo immediately follows the Power Leadership Breakfast in the atrium at Collin College Spring Creek Campus. Visit with a variety of local vendors and various businesses from the health and education industry. This is a great opportunity to learn about local businesses.
