The Black Entrepreneurship Program (BEP) is a partnership between the Government of Canada and the private sector. With an investment of up to $221 million over four years, it will help Black Canadian business owners and entrepreneurs grow and succeed.
The Black Entrepreneurship Knowledge Hub ('Knowledge Hub') is one component of the Black Entrepreneurship Program. The full potential of the Black Entrepreneurship Ecosystem can be unleashed through stronger information, research and statistics. The goal of the Knowledge Hub is to enable this. By conducting large-scale qualitative and quantitative research on Black entrepreneurship in Canada, conducting detailed mapping of Black Entrepreneurship Ecosystems across the country, and identifying critical gaps where Black entrepreneurs are facing the greatest challenges, we can level the playing field for Black entrepreneurs and business owners.
