Black in Data is a force for change within the data industry, striving to promote equality of opportunity and representation for people of colour. Our aim is to provide an empowering nationwide network, supporting our members to reach their potential in the workplace. We care passionately about propelling diversity to the top of the workplace agenda, in order that people of colour may feel confident, visible and heard. Through our work, we aspire to elevate people of colour through learning and development, while providing a supportive network to overcome external hurdles. Why does this matter? Diversity and equality at work is crucial not only for social justice, but also for the development of a flourishing data and technology industry, able to adapt in a dynamic world. The face of the workforce is changing, and every industry benefits from the greater breadth of knowledge, skills and personal experience that this greater diversity brings. Black in Data aims to energise and accelerate this pace of change.
