About the program
Social entrepreneurship has become a rapidly-growing approach to business, and for a good reason – social entrepreneurs are pioneers focused on tackling some of the world’s biggest societal issues. Fuelled by Unilever Canada, the Black Innovation Program’s (BIP) Social Impact Stream is a 6-month virtual business incubator program designed to help Black entrepreneurs scale operations, make lucrative industry connections, and build sustainable solutions to maximize their impact on Canadian communities. Over the course of the 6-month program, socially-driven organizations are equipped with the tools, mentorship and community needed to generate company growth, while accelerating their ability to create meaningful change and contribute to their core mission.
With more than 400 iconic brands in over 100 countries, Unilever’s vision is to be the global leader in sustainable business, and demonstrate why having a purpose-led, future-fit business model can contribute to superior performance. The organization focuses on unlocking capacity through agility and digital transformation, and aims to be a beacon for diversity, inclusion, and values-based leadership.
