From side-hustling in her teens to bootstrapping a seven-figure beauty and Ed-Tech company in her twenties, Oyin Adebayo is an entrepreneurial force with an incredible backstory.
The founder and angel investor shared how her childhood in Nigeria, unusual upbringing and difficult transition to the UK, all gave her the resilience, resourcefulness, perspective, and inner steeliness that make her successful in the worlds of tech, business and social impact today. Oyin is the founder of Niyo Group, a global tech company that combines beauty and education whilst uplifting and up-skilling marginalised communities.
