National Black MBA Association Announces Partnership with Grey AI Founding Member Program

ATLANTA, March 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Over the past several months, 100+ NBMBAA members have been training with Grey AI's SPARK Path™, a research-backed AI training platform grounded in research from Harvard, McKinsey, Stanford, NIST, and more. The program delivers 24 micro-trainings across 8 competency areas, designed for 10-15 minute sessions with same-day professional application.

Building on that foundation, the National Black MBA Association (NBMBAA) today announced a formal partnership with Grey AI to offer 50 NBMBAA members the opportunity to become Grey AI Founding Members with preferred pricing on Grey AI products.

Grey AI builds AI agents and custom AI tools designed to handle real work: research, writing, analysis, operations. Products include Scribe™, Signal™, Scout™, Essence™, Echo™, and other custom AI tools. From Custom GPTs you can use today to fully automated agents, and products that give you both. Founding Members get preferred pricing on all of it.

Grey AI developed SPARK Path™ around a core belief: that the professionals who will lead in the next decade are not the ones who understand AI in theory, but the ones who apply it daily in how they lead, decide, and communicate. The partnership with NBMBAA puts that training in front of exactly the professionals who stand to gain the most from it.
