ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (WFLA) — A new event is providing opportunities for women and minority-owned businesses in Tampa Bay.
Renee Edwards started Saturday Morning Shoppe last month as a way to give minority-owned businesses more exposure.
“It’s very important that people here have a place to display what they sell because they won’t get the opportunity any other place in St. Petersburg,” Edwards said.

BNB Sets All-Time High, Days After Binance Announces NFT Marketplace - Decrypt
The coin's price has since retreated to $616, down 0.52% in the last 24 hours. BNB is in a very healthy place right now; the last time it was anywhere near this valuable was on April 13, when it hit its former ATH of $635.
Tuesday's news that Binance is opening up its own NFT marketplace could be one of the driving forces behind this morning's price surge.
Over the last year the market for NFTs has exploded, and several go for millions of dollars. From the outside, the technical details look impenetrable, but all you need to make an NFT is a piece of original art and a platform on which to sell it. See Decrypt's guide for more details.

As concerns rise over forest carbon offsets, Pachama’s verified offset marketplace gets $15

It’s by far the most popular method for corporations looking to take an easy first step on the long road to decarbonizing or offsetting their industrial operations. But in recent months the efficacy, validity and reliability of a number of forest offsets have been called into question thanks to some blockbuster reporting from Bloomberg.
Minecraft Marketplace Leads To $350 Million Profit For Modders
Making mods in Minecraft can actually be quite lucrative, according to a recent report by Microsoft . This report shows the Minecraft Marketplace led to a whopping $350 million dollar profit for modders and creators. Microsoft has finally made it possible to make money by contributing to the community, with modders now a part of the game instead of a small aspect.
Minecraft is still one of the biggest games on the market, almost a decade after being released online in November 2011. Since then the game has been bought by Microsoft and ported to every modern console and continuously updated with new content and bug fixes. As of 2020, Minecraft has over 200 million copies sold and 126 million monthly active users, making the game one of the best-selling video games of all time.
Real-time proof the job market is recovering - Marketplace
There has been a lot of positive news about the economic recovery this week. Total output, or gross domestic product, is now nearly back to pre-pandemic levels, and consumer confidence is improving as more Americans are vaccinated. Plus there is a surge in consumer spending, driven by record-setting personal income. That’s being pumped up by relief checks and more Americans getting back to work.
But how does the labor market look overall? We get the April jobs report next week, and it's expected to be strong. However, the number of jobs in the U.S. is nowhere near where it was just before the pandemic hit.
