BUD Leaders EVENT 2026

Only 0.02% of venture capital goes to Black women, yet Global Majority businesses are rising up despite every obstacle.

Double Up & Access More! is here to drive that momentum and give you the power, support, and network to push forward. Join us in building the legacy of equity the world has been waiting for.
This isn't your 'average' conference, this is your intimate invitation to connect, network, and foster new relationships that drive change.

"This event was one of the most engaging network events that I've been to. Inspiring speakers and engaging workshops leading to impactful networking. I would highly recommend any future BUD Leaders events!"

If You’re Ready to Lead Change, This Day is for You

For the fighters, the visionaries, and the business trailblazers breaking ceilings and building wealth against all odds.

This event is for you if you’re:

• A Global Majority Entrepreneur from a Small or Medium-Sized Business: You’ve defied the odds—now let’s shatter the glass ceiling together and double your impact.
  
• A Corporate Leader from a Large Enterprise Ready to Diversify: This is your moment to transform supply chains, uplift diverse talent, and foster partnerships that shape a more inclusive future.
  
• An Ally Who Means It: Stand with us as a mentor, sponsor, or advocate for systemic change. Together, let’s create opportunities that truly matter.

This isn’t just an event—it’s a turning point.

The barriers are real, but so is our resolve to break them.

Double Up & Access More! is your opportunity to be part of a legacy that rewrites the rules, empowers our communities, and doubles the impact of Global Majority-led businesses across the UK.

Stand with us. Make your voice part of this movement. Commit to a future where all leaders have a fair shot.

Join us on February 27th to create the change you’ve been waiting for—and that future generations will thank you for.
"This conference was a platform for foreshadowing further success for global majority enterprise by removing self-limiting beliefs and handing out proverbial rocket fuel"

The System Wasn’t Built for Us – So We’re Changing It

For too long, Black and Global Majority entrepreneurs have faced closed doors, funding gaps, and broken networks. Now is the time to shatter those barriers and double down on progress.

A Day That Demands More – Learn, Laugh, & Lead the Legacy

Prepare for a day of hard truths, powerful conversations, hands-on networking, and unwavering support. This is where connections spark revolutions.
Our previous events have featured leaders from various organisations such as CBRE, META, IOUH, and UBELE and next year's event will welcome visionaries from similar large organisations and SME leaders from all over the UK.
The Agenda is in the works and will be shared as soon as it's ready!
