As part of our series highlighting alumnae who are leaders in business, we were delighted to speak to Ishveen Jolly (2003 Economics and Management), CEO and Founder of OpenSponsorship, a digital marketplace connecting brands to athletes for digital marketing campaigns.

Alumni and friends gathered in London over drinks and nibbles for our highly anticipated Entrepreneurs Evening, the first to happen in person since the pandemic. We were kindly hosted by Adam Turtle (1998) at Rede Partners Offices in Mayfair, where we listened to three inspiring presentations given by Keble entrepreneurs Ishveen Jolly (2003), John Vardakis (2009) and Nick Greenhalgh (2019).
