Oli Freeling-Wilkinson Bio:
Oli Freeling-Wilkson had an exhilarating youth filled with racing cars and achieving remarkable success. He became a renowned British and European car champion and earned several scholarships in the field. However, as they say in motorsport, to make a million, you have to spend two million. Unfortunately, Oli only had £250 in his back pocket, which made it clear to him that a career in motorsport would be financially unfeasible.
With this realisation, Oli ventured into the corporate world and briefly worked in the city. Along with a team, Oli established a revolutionary concept of using social media to gather valuable intelligence for trading and investing in the financial markets.
Despite the initial scepticism surrounding the idea, the business quickly gained traction and attracted the attention of a hedge fund. Recognising the immense potential, Oli boldly decided to sell the company to the hedge fund. This marked a turning point in his career, enabling him to pursue new ventures and make a lasting impact in the fintech industry. Today, Oli continues to explore new opportunities, leveraging his past experiences and insights to inspire and drive innovation in the ever-evolving world of technology and finance.
