BLACK BRITISH INITIATIVE
Black British Initiative, believes, racial injustice is a societal wide issue, only eradicated with the support of all races, genders and age groups. To deliver its mission, in partnership with the Stephen Lawrence Day Foundation, BBI has devised MBA 30, as short business course designed to boost prospects for 30 underserved Black Entrepreneurs, also commemorating Stephen's 30th anniversary.
