Days after The Graduate Guide was acquired by Apprentify Group, co-founders Peter Wood and Marlene Leiss have announced their next venture.

The UCL graduates built the The Graduate Guide into a fast-growing community platform of 30,000 graduates, with many going on to land roles at the UK’s fastest-growing startups.

Now the entrepreneurs have revealed details of their latest venture – Calibr – to shake-up the UK’s scale-up space.

Calibr is being built in partnership with Apprentify Group; the UK’s 30th fastest-growing company.

Peter Wood explained: “We’re taking the assessment, onboarding and development systems that work at enterprise level and bringing them into the scale-up world – where the stakes are higher and talent mistakes cost 10x more.”

Apprentify Group, which consists of  Apprentify, Netcom Training, The Juice Academy, Flourish and ioda, is on a mission to redefine early-career pathways through a blend of community, employability and upskilling.
