At Black Excellence, we partner with cities across the country to create thriving ecosystems of support for Black professionals and founders. Our work goes beyond providing resources - we focus on building capacity for our anchor partner, strengthening relationships with non-profit and philanthropic organizations, and measuring real economic impact to ensure Black households see tangible income and generational growth.
Through strategic collaboration, data-driven insights, and targeted programming, we help local chambers, corporations and community organizations amplify their impact - unifying and focusing the resources towards the economic advancement and generational wealth creation in Black communities across the United States.
Why Partner With Us?
Strengthening Local Ecosystems
We work alongside economic and community development organizations and funders to expand their reach and better serve Black professionals and business owners. We’ve started our work in Kansas City, and are looking to expand our model to other cities. We start by establishing a partnership with a strong civic organization and tapping into dynamic and ambitious local leaders. This process ensures that the impact will be anchored with existing organizations and residents.
Proximity: Our Platform for Professionals & Business Growth
We connect organizations building educational programs with individuals in a dynamic, data-driven ecosystem designed for career and business advancement and economic mobility. These individuals can also become members and unlock customized modules to build their career trajectory using their strengths and interests.
Scalable & Proven Frameworks that Drive Engagement
We create scalable frameworks that drive deep engagement and measurable change. Our experience in spotlighting leaders, cohort education, career competencies, focus group design, and coalition building, allows us to connect Black professionals, entrepreneurs, and organizations in meaningful ways. We collect and analyze data before, during, and after implementation to measure the effectiveness of our strategies on household income, career advancement and business growth.
