Limitless Without Borders: Rukayat Alabi Empowers Immigrant Professionals to Claim Space, Build New Tables

On Saturday, June 21 this year, London’s Greenwich Borough Hall transformed into a global hub of inspiration and action as award-winning career coach and CEO of RKY Group, Rukayat Alabi led Limitless Without Borders 3.0 (LWB 3.0) to record-breaking success.

With over 1,200 attendees, including over 600 virtual participants worldwide, Alabi set the momentum running with her vision for immigrant professionals.

In her keynote address, “Claiming Space as Immigrant and Underrepresented Professionals in the UK and Globally,” the convener charged the audience. “If they do not give you a seat at the table, bring a folding chair. Better yet, create your own table.”

She encouraged participants to make bold, decisive action, challenging them to create opportunities, help others in their communities thrive, and prioritise community impact over personal gain, leaving the room buzzing with energy and purpose.

Her message sparked immediate action, several attendees publicly shared how they registered long-held business ideas or officially named their businesses, inspired by her words. Social media quickly lit up with testimonials echoing her call to “claim space” and “build without limits.”

A defining moment of the day was when Alabi presented the £5,000 cheque to the winner of the Limitless Business Launchpad, a pitch competition designed to empower and scale emerging founders, sponsored by RKY Group.

This prize included business coaching, technical support, and funding, an embodiment of her commitment to not just inspire, but equip the next generation of entrepreneurs.

Beyond her keynote, Alabi’s leadership was evident throughout the day. From welcoming participants to guiding key sessions and closing the event with a symbolic cake-cutting ceremony, she embodied the spirit of empowerment and collective progress.

Through RKY Group, including RKY Careers, RKY Business Hub, Apply Buddy Ltd and other ventures, Rukayat is creating powerful pathways for immigrant professionals and founders to thrive, claim space, and refuse to settle for less. The organisations provide tools, mentorship, and real-world opportunities to transform dreams into tangible successes.
LWB 3.0 also featured dynamic panel discussions on Career Development, Business Growth, and Wealth-Building. A dedicated children’s playroom further demonstrated a commitment to true inclusion, ensuring mums and caregivers could participate fully.

The event ended on a high note, with Alabi leading the cake-cutting ceremony, a symbolic moment marking not just the success of the event but the birth of new dreams and initiatives that will ripple far beyond the room.

“This wasn’t just an event, it was a catalyst,” said Alabi. “We’re not here to just take up space, we’re here to build, to lift others as we rise, and to ensure that no one is left behind.”

As Limitless Without Borders looks toward its fourth edition in 2026, the movement continues to grow, fuelled by Alabi’s unwavering vision of equity, excellence, and community-first leadership.
