Our story
The BAE HQ was born like all the best organisations...Lots of rants about a common problem followed by a decision to do something about it.
Amardeep Parmar & Gurvir Riyat met only because Amar danced with Gurvir's now-wife a decade before and she thought we would have a lot in common.
She was right.
We both wished the British Asian entrepreneur community supported each other better. We were frustrated we didn't know anyone and we didn't even know how we could meet other likeminded people.
We wanted to pay it forward and help those earlier than us.
