The UpClub is a community for early stage founders who are unrepresented - BAME, females etc. They “feed” the community with information about starting and growing a business by hosting events, workshops and networking opportunities. 

We talk to the founder Chikere about:

addressing diversity issues in the startup community,

circumstances you should look for funding,

being on the search for a business model that works,

the difference when you love what you do and 

sweating your content.
