It's not enough to just dream. We must organise.

2016  /  Where it began

Born in East London.

Born in a one-room studio in East London, 2016. The start of everything.

Now  /  Where we are

Shoreditch.

Our proof of concept, open and working today. A live event space for the community, studios for hire, and shows being made right now. The model already runs; next, we scale it.

THE NEW BLXCK MEDIA.

We are building broadcast media. Not only a building: a whole new media institution.

Why we are building it

Black Britainneeds its ownbroadcasting house.

A home for the creators who carry microphones as their weapons of choice. A house to broadcast our resistance to the mainstream narratives made to break us.

No one is coming to build it.
So we are.

Invest

Our community funding round is open.

How SEIS and EIS work

HMRC has given us advance assurance for SEIS and EIS, up to the value of £2 million, the government schemes that offer tax relief to people who invest in early-stage companies.

Whether the relief applies depends on your own circumstances, so please take your own advice.

Capital at risk. Investing in early-stage businesses is high risk. You could lose all the money you invest, and you may not be able to sell your shares easily.
