Congratulations to Green Bean Studios Founder Anita Frost on successfully becoming a finalist for the KPMG Black Entrepreneurs’ Awards!

Official events kick off next week at KPMG Canary Wharf. Cheering on all the founders...

BEA is a programme that celebrates Black Heritage entrepreneurs in the UK and provides a platform for them to market their businesses to a wider audience.

KPMG Black Entrepreneurs' Awards
Establishing a business is challenging, but these challenges are even more pronounced for some. Black-led businesses frequently face disproportionate underfunding, with investment into Black founders less than 1% in 2023 (Diversity Beyond Gender 2023, Extend Ventures).
​
This significant racial disparity in venture capital (VC) funding hinders many from making the necessary investments to grow their businesses. Our Black Entrepreneurs’ Awards programme aims to provide talented black-heritage entrepreneurs with access to funding, publicity, business workshops and mentoring to create a community of like-minded business owners.

What is the Black Entrepreneurs' Award?
BEA is a programme that celebrates Black Heritage entrepreneurs in the UK and provides a platform for them to market their businesses to a wider audience. Each year there are four winners who receive a cash prize of £25,000 each, and all of the finalists are enrolled on a bespoke 12-month business acceleration programme, designed to support Black Heritage entrepreneurs and accelerate the growth of their start-ups.
​
Created in 2018, BEA has supported 36 black heritage founders to accelerate the growth of their business. Some of our previous finalists have gone on to raise over £3m; expanded their business overseas; been listed on the Forbes 30 under 30; and received MBEs for their services in making venture capital more inclusive.
