Become part of the community

As a not-for-profit Social Enterprise, we exist to make lasting change in the communities we serve. Much of this work is centred around connecting, supporting and promoting the Asian and wider community.

The Asian Business Connexions community brings together individuals and organisations from around the North East to create an inclusive and supportive environment that benefits one another.

With your support, we can make the North East the most inclusive region in the UK by 2025.

"We’ve hosted many ABC events over the last 2 years. The team have always given interesting updates and business insights that support their members tremendously”.

Nigel Coates, Director, Northumbria Business Clinic
