Executive education for every Black entrepreneur in the UK.

According to empirical data, Black entrepreneurs face systemic and structural 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 ‘Crème 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 and Clyde & Co have subsidised the overall course fee of £3,250 per student, resulting in a low participant fee of £750. Based on testimonials from previous cohorts, the course has been an unmitigated triumph, practically boosting prospects for MBA 30’s beneficiaries.

MBA 30 cohort six commences on 13th January 2025 to 6th February 2025 and is mostly online, starting from midday to 5pm, with the exception being the first and last day, which commence at 9am to 5pm and take place at SOAS, The University of London, Thornhaugh Street, Russell Square, London WC1H 0XG.
