Another year of The Black Excellence Network CIC has passed! This year has been an incredibly momentous one for the Black Excellence Network. We are very encouraged by the growing recognition of the importance of our mission, and the increased support for our efforts. We hope that this trend continues in the years ahead, and that we can continue serving our community.
<aside> 📆 Since 2020, we have maintained our commitment to bridging the information gap between Black students and the guidance, resources, and opportunities available to help facilitate the various forms of Black excellence. We are confident that the Black Excellence Network will remain one of the leading ways of inspiring and connecting Black students across the country.

Our team is determined to continue our efforts to create a more equitable and just society, and to make sure that Black excellence in all forms and expressions is celebrated. We envision a future where the contributions of Black people are fully recognised, respected, and valued in every aspect of life, from the classroom to the boardroom.
The Black Excellence Network will continue to ensure that access to educational and career- based resources are broadly available for our community with the help of our fantastic volunteer team and BENetwork.
Our commitment to excellence in all areas of our operations has led us to develop innovative approaches to problem solving and creative solutions that will benefit our members, our community, and our society.
We are so excited for you to join us on this journey into 2023 and beyond.
-Co-Founders, George Obolo and Oyinda Adeniyi

Furthermore, our social media accounts have seen a dramatic boost in following, with over 1500+ followers on Instagram and 4500+ followers on LinkedIn. This increase in followers has enabled us to spread the word of our mission and connect with more people than ever before.
We are proud of the growth we have seen thus far, and are excited to continue our work and create an even greater impact in the future. We are committed to amplifying the voices of the Black community and making sure that the world is listening.
