[4][5][6] Oniwinde was an intern at Goldman Sachs and Citi Investment Bank while a student,[2] and worked for a financial technology start-up after graduation.
[8] BYP Network, often dubbed 'the LinkedIn for black professionals',[9] has now grown to a platform of tens of thousands of members across the globe.
Oniwinde noticed a significant gap in the social media network area which connected black professionals in one place.
It has transformed this area with a variety of features, from platforms for black groups to connect and collaborate, an in-app job board, live events and much more all in one place.
Over August and July, BYP aimed to scale their business through an equity crowdfund campaign with seedrs, and within five days of going public, they raised £500,000 with over 1,000 investors.
