About The Pros Collective
BME PR Pros has officially evolved into The Pros Collective. While the name has changed, the mission remains the same: championing Black, Asian, Mixed Race, and Ethnic Minority pros. It’s the new home of:
The Blueprint diversity mark: A definitive diversity mark helping organisations recruit, retain, and nurture BME talent.
The Pros leadership scheme aka The Xec.: Supported by Google and delivered with PRovoke Media and the CIPR, this programme aims to build the next generation of BME leaders.
The Pros Awards: Celebrating the excellence of BME professionals, BME-owned agencies, and groundbreaking inclusive work.
The Pros Conference & The Pros Winter Series: Also known as Make Comms Great Again, these events offer a dynamic space to explore new techniques, celebrate creativity, and tackle society’s biggest topics.
BME PR Pros was founded by Elizabeth Bananuka in 2017. She’s been rooting for talented BME PR pros to get the careers they deserve and industry to benefit from their talent since 2015.
