Washington, United States Black Economic Alliance Full time

About the Black Economic Alliance

The Black Economic Alliance (BEA) is a nonpartisan coalition of Black business leaders and aligned advocates committed to driving economic progress for the Black community through public policy, advocacy, and engagement with government, business, and philanthropic leaders. Founded by a Board of Directors and supported by an Advisory Board that includes leading executives from a range of industries including media, finance, pharmaceutical, nonprofit, and tech, BEA uses its collective power and business acumen to advance public policies and private sector practices that will expand the economic power of the Black community with a focus on improving work, wages, and wealth.

The Black Economic Alliance is composed of a flagship 501c4 social welfare organization, the 501c3 BEA Foundation, and two political action committees. All activities of the Foundation and the PAC stay completely segregated; the 501c4 engages with the Foundation and PAC.

Under its unified structure, BEA is increasingly bringing together leaders from across business, government, and philanthropy, amplifying the organization’s impact, and strengthening its ability to drive meaningful change for Black economic opportunity and prosperity.
