Impact Monday – The Black Opportunity

The Black Opportunity explores how the inclusion of black voices in the venture capital space will shape the world for generations to come.

The Black Opportunity: Conversations on Belgian Venture Capital and Afropean Entrepreneurship explores how the inclusion of black voices in the venture capital space will shape the world for generations to come. It is time for a world that includes products by and for black people and allows them to get the attention and investment they deserve.

In this book, you will engage with the intersection of venture capital, entrepreneurship, and Afro-Europeans and learn what the current landscape is like in Belgium. Discover what must be done to get black people a seat at the table.

The Black Opportunity inspires reflection and fruitful dialogue, pressing into engaging questions:

• How do we tap into the underrepresented black community in Belgium?

• What challenges do black entrepreneurs face?

• How do we create inclusive environments within venture capital?

The Black Opportunity speaks to venture capitalists and entrepreneurs in Belgium who want to grapple with inclusion and innovation in a new way. Coming together and discussing venture capital, entrepreneurship, and minority participation will change us all for the better.
