100 Stories by Sussex Innovation: Recent Episodes
Sussex Innovation
100 Stories is a new video and podcast series that’s intended to provide a platform for people of colour to share their experiences of prejudice and journeys to success. In 2020 we’ve made a commitment as an organisation to respond constructively to the Black Lives Matter movement; aiming to become more diverse, more inclusive, and support more Black-owned businesses. The 100 Stories campaign will be a big part of this effort – if you’d like to know more, my colleague Eva has written this article that explains all about our diversity action plan: https://www.sinc.co.uk/article/our-diversity-action-plan.
