New Orleans Business Alliance: Amazon Commits $150M to Empower Black Entrepreneurs
Amazon’s new Black Business Accelerator provides access to capital, business guidance,
mentorship, and marketing support to help Black business owners succeed as sellers in Amazon’s store.
Amazon is launching the Black Business Accelerator (BBA) to help build sustainable equity and growth for Black-owned businesses. The initiative—which explicitly targets barriers to access, opportunity, and advancement created by systemic racism across America—was created in partnership with our Black Employee Network and a coalition of strategic partners.
