We’ve partnered with Foundervine for the second Barclays Black Founder Accelerator, a programme especially designed to champion diversity in entrepreneurship and showcase Black Founder-led businesses.

We’re looking for 40 Black Founder-led businesses to be part of our 12-week immersive accelerator programme and help them to grow and scale.

This virtual programme includes a series of expert-led masterclasses as well as one-to-one mentoring and professional coaching from business growth experts.

Apply for the Barclays Black Founder Accelerator

We’re taking applications for the next Barclays Black Founder Accelerator and looking for the next 40 startups to take part.

Apply today if you’re an ambitious UK-based business with tech or digital bias with some traction beyond MVP and with one or more Black Founders.

This programme is completely free and all we ask is that you attend all of the masterclasses over the 12-week period if your application is successful.

Applications close on Friday 8 October 2021 and the programme starts in November 2021.
