Join us in championing opportunity, access, and equality for Black marketers.
Our Pillars
Facilitating meaningful corporate diversity and inclusion requires intention and action. These pillars ground us in the work that needs to be done.
Why We Need BECA
When we see the lack of diversity in the C-Suite, we know it’s not due to a lack of Black talent. It’s demand that’s lacking, not talent. BECA was created to build a pipeline for young Black marketers to rise to the top and give those already at the top a platform. As a member or an ally, you can help us make that happen.
