The King has celebrated the success of leading figures of the British African and Caribbean communities at Buckingham Palace.
Charles hosted a reception on Thursday, ahead of the Powerlist Black Excellence Awards.
Among the guests were the former UN under-secretary-general for humanitarian affairs Baroness Amos and Commonwealth secretary-general Baroness Scotland.
The Powerlist, which has been published annually since 2007, champions the UK’s 100 most powerful people of African, African Caribbean and African American heritage.
Charles welcomed those recognised in the Powerlist 2023, including tech firm leader and Fortero chief executive Dean Forbes and Tunde Olanrewaju, managing partner at global management consultancy McKinsey and Company Inc.
