The UK's only accredited succinct MBA for black entrepreneurs.

According to empirical data, Black entrepreneurs face systemic, structural and institutional obstacles retarding progress. Education helps counteract these challenges, making it possible to realise the UK's deep reservoirs of Black and ethnic talent, which according to Aston University's “Time To Change Report", could positively impact the UK's economy by up to £100bn per annum. To help realise this prospect, BBI has devised MBA 30.

BBI is offering established and new entrepreneurs the opportunity to benefit from a transformative educational course, the MBA 30. The four-week executive programme was conceived in association with the Stephen Lawrence Day Foundation and is being delivered by SOAS, the University of London, an institution renowned for excellence where HRH Princess Anne is the Chancellor.

Complimenting SOAS's academics, participants will hear from more than fourteen prestigious and successful business leaders and have an opportunity to discuss their own business challenges with these seasoned and successful experts. Recognising cost can be a barrier, our sponsors including NatWest, Vodafone Business, Paramount Global, Freuds, Eco-Age, Retail Trust, Good Corporation, Fabacus and Clyde & Co have provided funding, making it possible for BBI to award bursaries. In turn, for those who qualify, course fees might be reduced from £3,250 per student to as low as £1050, subject to status.

Based on testimonials from previous cohorts, the course has been an unmitigated triumph, practically boosting prospects and levels of success for MBA 30's beneficiaries.

MBA 30 cohort nine commences on 13th October 2025 to 6th November 2025, comprising of three full days in person, held at SOAS, The University of London, Thornhaugh Street, Russell Square, London WC1H 0XG.
