2. Defining the research agenda through identifying gaps and under-explored topics concerning Black entrepreneurship;
3. Attracting academic and community researchers to undertake research on Black entrepreneurship in Canada;
4. Receiving contributions for guiding the development of the large-scale quantitative, qualitative, and network mapping studies as required in the funding agreement for the BEKH program;
5. Raising awareness about the opportunities for participation in co-creating community-based research relevant to the Black entrepreneurial community.
