The Government of Canada has invested $2.4M in the Black Entrepreneurship Alliance (BEA), a collaboration between York University’s YSpace and the Black Creek Community Health Centre. The Alliance—which launched in 2021—provides Black entrepreneurs with a place to build their companies and take advantage of upskilling and training opportunities. The investment will allow for the creation of several programs, including an 11-week process improvement training program and a 12-week program focused on international exports. The project is expected to support over 350 businesses in the Greater Toronto Area.
