S2 Episode 106 | Discussion with Samuel Nicholls Co-Founder of TipStart and Diplomat @ UK Foreign Office | Social Enterprise and Theory of Change | Politics and Books
Today my guest is Samuel Nicholls who is a Diplomat working at the UK Foreign Office. He also co-founded and run a social enterprise called TipStart. His mission is to harness the motivation and social responsibility of graduates to disrupt privilege in employment.
TipStart is a for-profit social enterprise that uses a digital platform to connect graduates from disadvantaged backgrounds with firms struggling to recruit diverse talent. Through these connections, the graduates improve their awareness of the sector they want to work in, increase the size of their professional network and increase their personal confidence. The firms involved are able to build a new diverse recruitment pipeline as well as offering a compelling learning and development opportunity to their staff.
