Hi there and welcome back to another edition of ScaleUp Radio, the podcast inspired by the Entrepreneurial ScaleUp System and designed to make navigating our ScaleUp journeys that little bit easier by learning from others' experiences.

I’m Kevin Brent and today I’m joined by  social entrepreneur Adefunke Larigo, founder of Agency Connection, a trailblazing organisation dedicated to recruiting diverse panel members for adoption and fostering assessments in the UK.

Ade shares her journey, from shifting business models to overcome industry challenges, to launching a jobs board aimed at simplifying the recruitment process. Tune in to learn how Agency Connection is championing diversity to ensure better outcomes in adoption and fostering, and discover what lies ahead for this pioneering initiative.

Most founders I speak to feel busy but stuck; plenty happening, but not always clear on what genuinely matters most this quarter. If that’s you, the G90 Summit is worth a look. A structured half-day where we work through everything competing for your attention, get clear on the three to five things that must happen in the next 90 days, then commit to them and build the system to make sure they actually happen. Quarterly, virtual, £97 a seat.
