About the Black Entrepreneurship Knowledge Hub :

The Black Entrepreneurship Knowledge Hub (BEKH) is a national network of research centers involved in community-based research with a mandate to improve the lived experiences of the Black community. In December 2021, Carleton University and its community engagement partner Dream Legacy Foundation were officially established as the lead partners to the Black Entrepreneurship Knowledge Hub. Their mission is to be the national hub for Black entrepreneurship research, data, and insights in Canada by orchestrating structured, community-led research collaborations anchored in regional hubs comprised of stakeholders whose voices and participation are critical to the work they are doing. The research will be interdisciplinary and intersectional and will address the local and regional needs of Black entrepreneurs, community members and organizations across Canada.
