10,000 Interns Foundation Information Deck

We aim to champion underrepresented talent by promoting equity of opportunity and offering access to paid internships across a wide range of industries, as well as world-class training and development.

10,000 Black Interns was founded in 2020 to address the underrepresentation of Black talent within Investment Management.

Today, we are a registered charity working with organisations across 35+ workstreams to provide insight into industry for Black students and graduates through paid internships, training and mentoring.

The 10,000 Able Interns Programme was launched in 2022 following the success of the 10,000 Black Interns programme to address the underrepresentation of disabled talent within UK industries.

Starting with a pilot cycle of 100 internships in 2022/23, the 10KAI programme has now expanded to provide 500 internship opportunities for the 2023/24 cycle.
