Born Blak is a program that aims to increase representation and create opportunities for First Nations content creators who have been underrepresented in Australian marketing and communications for far too long. 

What makes Born Blak unique is that it’s a long-term commitment to foster, educate, and mentor emerging First Nations content creators, providing them with the skills and connections to increase access to commercial opportunities. 

Above all else, we want to amplify Indigenous voices in mainstream media and help facilitate commercial opportunities for First Nations people – connecting them with Australia’s leading brands.
