Kingsley Aikins is one of the world’s leading experts on networking, relationship-building and diaspora engagement.

  • How the old way of networking is dead
  • (And why it probably never worked in the first place)
  • A surprising hack to turn cold calls into hot coffees
  • Incredible tips and tricks to “wow” new relationships in the digital age
  • Building a network from scratch in Australia when he knew no one
  • How the Ireland Funds raised $700+ million
  • His experience with billionaire Chuck Feeney
  • And meeting Nelson Mandela
