About 

Since 2002, Black Entrepreneur Magazine has been a hub for international Black entrepreneurs, business owners, professionals, executives, and decision-makers.

Our mission is to provide increased recognition, education, and support to Black entrepreneurs across America, Canada, Africa, and the Caribbean. We now have partners and representatives in over 38 countries.

We understand that countless Black individuals make valuable contributions to society through their businesses and entrepreneurial endeavors. Despite this, the Black community faces numerous barriers that limit their opportunities for career and business growth.

This is why Black Entrepreneur Magazine aims to tackle these challenges head-on.

The statistics are staggering. African Americans comprise only 13.4% of the U.S. population, and Black citizens make up just 3.5% of Canada's population.

Systemic racism in these countries results in Black children being less likely to enroll in higher academic streams, Black men having a higher likelihood of interacting with the justice system compared to their white counterparts, and Black women being less likely to find employment, even with higher levels of education compared to white women.

At Black Entrepreneur Magazine, we believe this is unacceptable. We aspire to eliminate these injustices and contribute to the advancement of the Black community.

Our platform serves as a voice for Black entrepreneurs, providing a stage for them to showcase their achievements and access resources for support and education.

Canada's recent announcement of its first-ever Black Entrepreneurship Program, supported by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, highlights the need for increased support for the Black entrepreneurship community.

We aim to ensure that our counterparts in America, the Caribbean, and Africa receive the same exposure and support at all levels of government.

Our focus is on long-term, permanent changes that break down the barriers preventing Black entrepreneurs from succeeding in the economy. Our three pillars of support, education, and recognition are the driving force behind our initiatives.

Through our publication, we aim to raise awareness of systemic racism and promote understanding of its impacts.

We publish stories, interviews, and statistics that advance the Black entrepreneurship community. We share success stories to inspire potential entrepreneurs and encourage networking to help them make professional contacts that will benefit their businesses in the long run.

Launching a Black venture is not an easy task; it requires a set of skills, hard work, and risk-taking behavior to succeed.

At Black Entrepreneur Magazine, we recognize the efforts of Black entrepreneurs and will not tolerate limiting them based on negative stereotypes.

Greater recognition and support will be promoted to accelerate the growth of any organization or business owned by a Black entrepreneur in any country.
