Sophos Sponsors Scholarships To Celebrate Black History Month

To mark Black History Month, Sophos is proud to announce our contribution to the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) scholarship fund.

Each year the NBSE help fund around 125 African American students, from high school seniors to graduate students, in a wide range of engineering programs, significantly increasing their graduation prospects.

Through this investment in education, our aim is to contribute to a more equitable future and empower the next generation of leaders.

Previously, we have organized workshops, webinars, and speaker sessions featuring thought leaders and experts who shared insights on the significance of Black History Month and Juneteenth helping to raise awareness, encourage dialogue, and deepen understanding among our diverse team around the globe. And so, this year we are pleased to continue our commitment to making a lasting impact through the funding of these NBSE scholarships.

At Sophos, we firmly believe that creating a workplace valuing diversity and actively promoting education is not just a responsibility but also a catalyst for positive change.
