#WVH was born from a deep understanding of who should be in the room, but is missing.
From better gender in STEM, more hiring from your neighbouring EU Country or US State, talent that might require some work accommodations to thrive & more, advert driven hiring has left far too many talents behind.
Our founder Seán Fay is Dublin's first ever Disability Ambassador.
Ireland is last in Europe on disability employment, yet all of our +$1bn exits have 'ND' founders.
Companies in Ireland are not making the most of the ability to connect talent in the East of our Union with jobs on the very West. Thanks to Teresa Buczkowska, who is:
● CEO of Immigrant Council of Ireland● Editor of ‘The Migrant Vote.’ ● Women of Europe – Media award winner 2024.
Teresa is a Polish-Irish writer and a migrant rights campaigner who uses storytelling as a tool for social impact. You can follow her here:

fhostú
On Tuesday the 23rd of September, at the Mansion House in Dublin the Founder of #WVH and Dublin City's First Disability Ambassador announced the intention to build fhostú. fhostú is the Irish for 'employ' - as a noun "The state of being employed, or having a job"
Ireland has the lowest level of employment of people with a disability in the EURO27
Companies led by a wider range of founders will hire a wider range of staff, no one asks for an accommodation at work, if the boss already needs it. The first focus of fhostú will be to connect parents of children with additional needs with role models in Ireland. People with a difference who have made a difference as entrepreneurs and whose achievements have been in commercially orientated business. If you are interested in either side of that email:

Inclusive Sourcing
The first ever UK Inclusive Sourcing Summit ran from the 11 - 12th Sep 2025, it supports the new Procurement Act 2023, the Procurement Regulations 2024 and the new National Procurement Policy Statement (NPPS) which went live earlier this year. In the USA supply chain inclusion has been running since the Small Business Act of 1953, The Small Business Investment Act of 1958, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, The Office of Minority Business Enterprise 1969, The National Minority Purchasing Council, now known as the National Minority Supplier Development Council 1972, Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and more.
On Tuesday the 23rd of September, at the Mansion House in Dublin the Founder of #WVH and Dublin City's First Disability Seán Fay made a speech calling for supply chain inclusion in Ireland. A video of that speech is here, lets answer the call.
Our easy 1+2+3 process.
#WVH Trial
#WVH creates an intelligent ordering of your talent engagement content, via classification. #WVH's ability to map talent & create your company wide hiring team was born from the biomimicry of bees.
#WVH Review
At the end of typically 4-6 weeks trial, we review the #WVH project for evidence of the existence of the success agreed. Number of interviews, offers, hires & share your engagement data.
#WVH in my HCM
When we have created the business case for #WVH to be implemented into your existing human capital management / ATS tech, we manage this with your supplier or you can try a web based version yourself.
