"Information is abundant... wisdom less so."
It's no secret that access to knowledge and mentorship is fundamental to success in many aspects of life, not least business. But, on a Diverse Founders Programme, it became apparent to Dayo Akinrinade that these all-important connections were held within privileged circles - so she decided to set up Wisdom.
Wisdom has harnessed the social audio phenomenon to connect knowledge seekers to mentors, for the benefit of people from all backgrounds. For this latest episode of Founded & Grounded, Dayo talks about tackling institutionalised prejudice, the challenge of ensuring trust and safety on a still-evolving social platform, and her vision of Wisdom one day rivalling Google as the go-to place for knowledge.
Presented by Andrew Parsonage, with expert analysis from Ollie Collard and listener feedback from Samantha Miles.
