Brumbassadors

Businesses Championing Birmingham

Our city’s had a rough time of it in the news lately. But our young, diverse and innovative place offers a lot to be excited about.

Brumbassadors is a platform for amplifying good news and opportunities across business, culture and sport; the magic ingredients that make a great place to live, work and invest.

What is a Brumbassador?

A Brumbassador is an advocate for, and champion of Birmingham - members of the business community who want to help shape a positive future for this great city.

What’s the aim?

We’re here to:

Change the narrative: get what’s brilliant about Brum the recognition it deserves
Build connections: link up like-minded business leaders with each other and the organisations making positive change in this city
Make an impact: deliver a loud and proud voice for the city’s businesses, shaping its future

How can I get involved?

You can be a Brumbassador by:

Amplifying good news about the city in your personal and business communications and social media
Championing the city to your networks within and outside of Birmingham, encouraging contacts to visit, invest and do business here
Connecting with, and supporting the work of, organisations driving positive change in the city such as social enterprises and charities
Getting involved in opportunities to share your voice and views on the future of the city

There's always someone you can ask for help, whether that's the experience and expertise of someone who's done it before in Birmingham, or the peer support of those valued people in your local network - who often need you as much as you need them!

Johnny Shah

I’m buzzing about the opportunity Birmingham has to reshape its narrative on a national stage. The city is entering a period of reinvention, and with major developments, political focus shifting toward the regions, and renewed commitment to investment and placemaking.
