The story behind Enterprise League


I remember the day I started my first graduate job in the financial industry in London. It was a pretty good place to be in, or as one person on the initial training would say: “You should be proud you are here today.” Those words did make me feel a bit special for a few moments. Then back to work…

Outside of work, I had started thinking about entrepreneurship and was already diving into a stack of books on the topic. I was also deeply inspired by my father, who has over 30 years of experience as an entrepreneur and small business owner.I’ve always loved speaking with him about his companies. During one of those conversations, we talked about the challenges he was facing with one of his ventures, particularly the difficulty of finding new suppliers and buyers.

He had spent hours Googling, combing through online directories, cold emailing, and investing heavily in SEO and digital marketing, but the results were disappointing. The only successful deals had come through personal connections in his existing network.We thought: There must be a better way. How amazing would it be to have one place where you could search for the exact product or service you need, and contact the right person at the company directly?

That’s when the idea for Enterprise League was born.

Our mission is simple: Connect verified businesses to close more deals. We’re building a platform that brings together small and medium-sized businesses from around the world that want to grow, expand, and collaborate. Whether it’s entering new markets, finding suppliers, or generating new leads, Enterprise League exists to make these things faster, easier, and more transparent. And to make it truly accessible, we made the core platform completely free.

So what does Enterprise League actually solve?

      Lower the barrier of entry to a new market
Thousands of companies operate successfully within their region but hesitate to expand into new markets because of uncertainty. Enterprise League gives local businesses global visibility and helps them discover trusted partners abroad, making cross-border expansion less intimidating and more achievable.

      Find new suppliers
Business needs evolve. Whether you’re scaling up or looking to cut costs, we help you explore and discover new suppliers that meet your criteria.

      Get new leads and diversify your client base
You can’t always rely on ads to target the right B2B prospects. On our platform, companies search for what they need and get in touch directly. This helps reduce over-reliance on just a few clients and unlocks new revenue streams.

A company in the UK might be solving the exact problem another company in Australia is facing. If they’re not competitors, both can benefit from collaboration. Enterprise League encourages these connections.
