Black Business Venture Association

Project Name: Establishing a Strong Digital Presence

Edmonton, AB

The Black Business Venture Association (BBVA) connects the Black community to the technological sector. They accomplish this through identifying, teaching, and mentoring Black entrepreneurs to assist them in gaining expertise and resources to establish their digital firms.

The BBVA has a multicultural staff of Black professionals that speak numerous languages from many locations (Afro-Caribbeans, West-Africa, East-Africa, South Africa, and Black Canadians). They envisage a thriving Canadian technological ecosystem with solid engagement from members of the Black community. They are on a quest to assist in the establishment of 1000 successful Black-led and tech-enabled enterprises in Canada by 2030. The Supporting Black Canadian Communities initiative will assist the BBVA in achieving its objectives by concentrating on project activities. One of these projects is to improve its digital presence by developing and implementing a media content strategy to promote the organization’s efforts.
