Your network is your net worth and most rooms you walk into aren't worth the cost of your time. This one is different. For one evening in Glasgow, the founders, CEOs and decision-makers who are actually building something will be in the same room led by a man who has turned a thrift-collection side hustle into a portfolio spanning Nigeria, the UAE, the UK and the USA. If you've ever felt like the next level of your business is being decided in rooms you're not yet in this is your invitation in.

The problem

Talent isn't your bottleneck. Access is.

You've built something real. You're past the stage of "just trying to survive." But somewhere along the way, the climb got quieter — and lonelier.

  • You're the smartest person in most of your rooms, and that's exactly the problem.
  • The capital, partnerships and deals you need exist — but they move through relationships you don't yet have.
  • You've outgrown generic "networking events" full of people selling, not building.
  • Glasgow is full of ambition, but the right rooms are closed, quiet, and hard to find from the outside.

Growth at your level isn't about working harder. It's about standing next to the right people.

The promise

One evening. The right room. A different trajectory.

The Glasgow CEOs & Founders Meet & Greet is an exclusive networking experience built for one purpose: to put serious founders and CEOs in direct contact with each other — and with Dr. Stephen Akintayo, one of Africa's most influential investment minds. This isn't a webinar. It's not a sales pitch dressed up as a seminar. It's a curated, high-trust gathering where the conversations are real, the people are vetted, and the connections are built to last well beyond the night.

Who it's for

This room was designed for you if…

  • You're a CEO, founder or business owner who's already in motion and ready to scale.
  • You're building in Glasgow, Scotland or the wider UK — or you're part of the diaspora business community here.
  • You want access to capital, partnerships, and international markets (Africa, the UAE, the US).
  • You believe your next breakthrough comes from a relationship you haven't made yet.
  • You'd rather spend one focused evening with the right 50 people than another year guessing.

And it's NOT for you if…

  • You're looking for a free "how to start a business" class.
  • You want to work the room selling instead of building genuine relationships.
  • You're not ready to act on the opportunities in front of you.

What you gain

You're not buying a ticket. You're buying a shortcut.

  • Direct access to Dr. Stephen Akintayo — and the strategies behind a $200M+ portfolio, in an intimate setting, not a stadium.
  • A curated network of CEOs and founders who are operating at — or above — your level.
  • Investment & wealth-building intelligence you can apply to real estate, private equity and scalable businesses.
  • Partnership and deal-flow conversations that simply don't happen over email or LinkedIn.
  • A foothold in a global ecosystem spanning Africa, the UAE, the UK and the US.
  • Clarity and conviction on your single most important next move.
Dr. Stephen Akintayo — Host Portrait

About the host

Meet the man in the room.

Dr. Stephen Akintayo is the Chairman of SACI Holdings, a global private equity firm with interests in real estate, technology and emerging markets across Africa, the UAE, the UK and the USA. He is the Founder and President of the Stephen Akintayo Foundation, and the founder of Gtext Holdings, a multinational conglomerate he built from the ground up. In 2023, Forbes named him the Best of Africa's Leading Investment Coach & Real Estate Mogul. He's a member of the Forbes Business Council, the author of 45+ books on wealth and entrepreneurship, and host of The Billionaire Habits Podcast. But the part that matters most: he started with nothing. From a thrift collector on campus to a recharge-card stand in Abuja, his story is proof that the gap between where you are and where you want to be is closed by the right knowledge — and the right rooms. His mission is bold and specific: to raise one million millionaires by 2050. On 24th July, a few of them could be sitting in Glasgow.

Why now

Opportunity is global. Most people are still building locally.

The founders who win this decade are the ones who think across borders — connecting UK capital and credibility with the explosive growth of African and Gulf markets. Dr. Akintayo's ecosystem already operates in all of them. This Glasgow evening is your on-ramp. The dates are fixed. The room is small. And once 24th July passes, the next chance to be in a room like this — in your city — may be a long way off.

Urgency

Why you can't wait on this.

This is an intimate room by design. The value of the evening comes from keeping it small — which means seats are strictly limited and they will not be reopened once they're gone.

  • Limited seats — capped at 100 for the quality of the room.
  • Fixed date — 24th July. There's no rain-check.
  • Free to attend — but only for those who register before seats are gone.

When access is the asset, the people who move first win.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

The room is filling. The question is whether you'll be in it.

You already know that the next level of your business won't come from doing more of the same. It comes from the right room, the right people, and a decision to show up. On 24th July, that room is in Glasgow.
