The Asian Business Board - Heart of Birmingham

Based in Birmingham, The Asian Business Board are a group of business leaders who are raising vital funds in support of BHF’s lifesaving research.

About the board

The Asian Business Board (ABB), a pioneering initiative, brings together corporate organisations, associates, and community members who share a deep connection with the South Asian community.

ABB's mission is to:

  • drive awareness
  • support groundbreaking research
  • funding life-saving treatments through high-profile fundraising events tailored to the South Asian community.
Health inequalities disproportionately affect people of South Asian heritage, who face approximately a 50% higher risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) compared to the wider population. BHF is committed to tackling this critical issue head-on.
