The State of Black Britain

The State of Black Britain Symposium (SBBS) 2010 is where a raft of high-profile guests will assemble to work through this year’s theme, Health & Wealth – An Agenda for Black Britain.

The government’s bleak economic forecast and pending spending cuts makes the theme a timely agenda to discuss measures to buffer austerity.

Among the speakers are Muyiwa, who is a singer, songwriter and broadcaster for Premier Radio and Lufthansa Airlines; and BBC radio presenter, publisher and co-founder of Colourtelly, Dotun Adebayo MBE.

Other experts include Dr Viviane Lafar-Cissé – currently transitional lead for the NHS National BME Network and influential businessman Ken Olisa OBE, chair of merchant bank Restoration Partners and director at Thomson Reuters.

SBBS is the brain-child of The Revd David Shosanya. David currently serves as a Regional Minister with the London Baptist Association and is a co-founder of the nationally acclaimed Street Pastors Initiative.

Experts will present and facilitate inspiring seminars and workshops on healthy communities, bodies, finances, entrepreneurship, technology and healthy life options.

In addition, a representative of the Olympic Delivery Authority will make a special presentation on business and volunteering opportunities related to the 2012 Olympics.

The SBBS 2010 - 10am-5pm on October 9.  The Keyworth Centre, London South Bank University, London SE1. info@thestateofblackbritainsymposium.com
