Pride25 is more than just a directory—it is a pioneering institution dedicated to setting a new benchmark for inclusivity, professionalism, and community engagement within the LGBTQ+ space. Inspired by the impact of organizations like the IGLTA, Pride25 aims to establish itself as a trusted authority that promotes and supports businesses, organizations, and initiatives that uphold genuine inclusivity.

Our Mission

Pride25 exists to:

• Promote Excellence & Professionalism – We encourage inclusive businesses and organizations to implement best practices that elevate industry standards. By fostering a culture of professionalism, we aim to set a market benchmark for what it means to be truly inclusive.
• Support and Connect the LGBTQ+ Community – Pride25 is not just a name; it is a movement to amplify the visibility of Pride events, LGBTQ+ organizations, and allies. We work year-round to ensure inclusivity is at the forefront of business and community engagement.
• Provide a Centralized Hub for Information & Promotion – Through our digital platform, we create an online space where Pride events, LGBTQ+ organizations, and inclusive businesses can gain continuous exposure, ensuring they remain accessible and visible 24/7, 365 days a year.

The Pride25 Code of Practice & Accreditation

At Pride25, we believe in setting a high standard for inclusivity and ethical business practices. That’s why we have introduced the Pride25 Code of Practice—a framework that businesses and organizations can adopt to demonstrate their commitment to LGBTQ+ inclusivity, equality, and professional integrity.

Pride25 Accreditation Levels

Businesses that adhere to our Code of Practice can obtain one of three levels of Pride25 accreditation:

• Bronze – Recognizes businesses taking their first steps toward inclusivity, implementing fundamental policies and commitments.
• Silver – Awarded to businesses that actively engage in inclusive practices, demonstrating a strong and ongoing commitment to the LGBTQ+ community.
• Gold – The highest level of accreditation, reserved for organizations that lead by example, setting industry standards for inclusivity, diversity, and professional excellence.

Companies that achieve Pride25 accreditation will be granted the right to display the Pride25 logo on their website, promotional materials, and marketing assets. This logo serves as a mark of trust, professionalism, and unwavering support for the LGBTQ+ community.

By achieving this accreditation, businesses align themselves with the Pride25 mission and gain visibility as leaders in LGBTQ+ inclusivity.

Pride25 & Pride 2025: Our Ecosystem

Pride25 serves as the parent company to Pride 2025, an online community and directory designed to showcase and promote Pride events, LGBTQ+ organizations, supporters, and inclusive businesses worldwide. While Pride 2025 functions as the interactive hub for community engagement and event promotion, Pride25 is the driving force behind its vision, ensuring that inclusivity is not just celebrated but embedded within the industry as a professional standard.

Our goal is to create a lasting impact—one that supports and uplifts LGBTQ+ communities, strengthens inclusive businesses, and sets the stage for a more equitable future.
