The business world needs more colour, more shades, more hues…because colour is representation, colour is opportunity and colour is possibility.
This directory is the first step in making that happen. To highlight business excellence from people of colour, especially black people.
These are creatives and coaches and mentors and experts and artists and speakers….all in one place to show you what the colour of excellence looks like and my hope is that when you see these names, you not only take a moment to absorb the sheer talent behind these names but also choose to work with them, to spread the word about them and to give them a seat at your table.

I have no financial incentive in sharing these businesses, nor am I being compensated for this. I have only created this directory to highlight businesses from people of colour, especially black people. I have not personally worked with these businesses and therefore this is not a recommendation or endorsement from me. Please do your due diligence before using any of these resources.
