What Kivuko Is

Named for a Crossing

Kivuko is Kiswahili for a crossing: the place where a river is passable on foot, a known point of safe passage used by everyone.

It is the point at which an athlete crosses from competition into a working life, and the point at which the wider sporting workforce finds its way in.

Sport careers run on Kivuko's own talent platform.

  • The Workforce Crossing

    For the people who make sport run, and the next generation trying to get in.

  • The Athlete Crossing

    For competitors, active and retired, crossing into brand, capital and the career after the career.

  • The Learning Crossing

    For learners and career-changers closing the gap.

  • The Marketplace

    For those who hire, sponsor or do business in sport.
