When we think about racial injustices and misrepresentations, we often think about it as an individual problem. But misrepresentation is also embedded in the systems we create in order to organise ourselves—the ways we do business, the laws that govern us, and even the products we buy and sell.
In 2023, we expect our growth to continue, with a focus on building a stronger community within our network and fostering partnerships with other business networks and diversity groups so that everyone can come together under one goal. Check out some of the MSDUK highlights this year!
Are you new to supplier diversity? Or have you ever wondered what the term ‘supplier diversity’ means and how it can affect your business and the global economy?
MSDUK Accelerator is a four-month programme designed to help your business succeed. You'll be running experiments to validate your business assumptions. You'll be building relationships with the ecosystem and you'll be meeting the MSDUK corporate network.
Connections are just as critical as capital. We offer holistic support with learning curriculum led by handpicked expert facilitators, 1-2-1 advice from experts, and specialist workshops. With access to 100+ global corporations and over 300 businesses in our network, you’ll be entering an ecosystem rich with potential.
Unlike other programmes that may be internally competitive, our programme is collaborative. You'll join a dynamic community that will grow with you on this journey. Our Accelerator tribe members support and motivate one another long after the programme has finished.

The MSDUK Accelerator has massively helped improve my business and provided me with the lessons and guidance that would have taken me ages to pick up. My only wish is that I would have found out about it even sooner. For anyone just starting out or even if you're a few years in, I would hugely recommend!
Tobi Ogundipe, Diverse.Being part of a community of talented and tenacious business owners is beneficial to all, the insight and inspiration that can be gained through osmosis and conversation is so beneficial. The MSDUK cohort is filled with incredible founders!
