Promoting Enterprise Podcast - Kave Bulambo

Kave Bulambo is a founder, community leader, and strong voice for fairness and inclusion at work. Through her two companies —TalentDiverse and BlackInTech Berlin—she’s helping companies create workplaces where everyone has a real chance to grow and succeed.

In the latest episode of the Promoting Enterprise podcast, Kave shares her inspiring story: growing up in the Democratic Republic of Congo, fleeing conflict, and rebuilding her life in South Africa and then Germany. After working in Berlin’s tech industry, she chose to start her own businesses to help others feel welcome and supported at work.

“Inclusion doesn’t just happen. Leaders need to create safe spaces where people feel heard, respected, and valued.”

TalentDiverse helps companies improve how they hire and support people—especially women and others who are often left out of leadership roles.
BlackInTech Berlin gives Black professionals in tech access to mentorship, events, and job opportunities. It’s one of the few places where many feel truly seen and connected.

“Diversity is inviting someone to the party. Inclusion is asking them to dance.”

Kave encourages companies to look closely at their habits and cultures—not just the numbers—so that everyone feels like they belong.

“If you can’t stay late or join early meetings because you’re a mom, you’re seen as not a culture fit. But maybe the culture is the problem.”

Listen to Kave’s story on the Promoting Enterprise podcast—a conversation on resilience, purpose, and the power of community.
