General
The Black Tech Achievement Awards (BTA Awards) are the UK's leading awards ceremony celebrating and honouring Black professionals, innovators, and allies making an impact across the technology sector. Now in their 7th year, the Awards recognise role models, trailblazers, and changemakers championing Black talent in tech, from AI researchers and cybersecurity experts to founders, diversity champions, and rising stars.
The UK's technology sector is growing almost three times faster than the rest of the economy. By championing Black achievement within technology, the BTA Awards aim to inspire and connect whilst helping map out a more diverse, inclusive, and innovative landscape.
The BTA Awards are part of the Black Business Experience portfolio alongside the UK Black Business Show, UK Black Business Week, and Black Business Forum.
