About GetBoardwise.
GetBoardwise was founded to help you achieve what you thought was the unachievable.
Shortlisted for Service Industries Entrepreneur of the Year 2024.
At the helm of our organisation is our visionary Founder, John Hall, whose singular focus is revolutionising how you uncover opportunities. Through a range of innovative strategies, we have successfully generated countless opportunities for our esteemed clientele. We pride ourselves on being different and targeted in our approach.
The journey began with our sister company, GetCoursewise, which was instrumental during the COVID-19 pandemic in helping organisations keep their teams engaged through CPD training courses in mental health awareness, cyber security, and leadership. Our work was predominantly in the public sector, with clients ranging from Comic Relief to various NHS trusts. Clients seeking to up-skill their senior leadership teams would personally introduce us, and the discussions were always the same: "How can I break out of the public sector?" and "I don’t want training; I want to find external consultancy/advisory opportunities."
Our relentless pursuit of such opportunities led us to an undeniable truth: existing organisations in the space simply couldn’t meet the mark. Undeterred, we devoted ourselves to perfecting a new and distinctive model focused solely on opportunity generation.
In our quest for excellence, we raised at SEED, providing access to a wider team and the capital needed to build our product. Our wider team consists of highly experienced advisors, developers, and product managers, all united in their commitment to delivering nothing short of the best.
At GetBoardwise, we are poised to change the game, elevating your opportunity-seeking experience to unprecedented heights.
