Amazing things Ryan's made

I am an award-winning technology entrepreneur who previously successfully built and sold a top 70 startup from scratch. I also represented the UK at www.sanfranciscosummit.com. Skillstep met with tech giant Apple amongst others and successfully pitched to a number of banks in the USA including Silicon Valley Bank. SVB identified with the staff retention and development problem for aspiring managers and leaders. We are currently piloting the app in 4 multi-national corporates across 3 sectors.
We have been shortlisted as a Finalist of FinTech Innovation Lab London, and are yet to hear whether we have won. We are thrilled at this validation of our great idea that has already been chosen by banks and the world's largest engineering companies.
