About Funbi
From football representation to building sports technology.
Funbi Ogunfuwa is a sports technology founder, FIFA agent and lawyer working where football, technology and business meet.
The story
My work began with a simple interest: understanding how football works beyond the pitch. That led me into representation, law, business and the systems that sit behind a career in the game.
BallBusiness grew from the need to make the industry easier to understand and enter. BallBridge grew from a different need: giving football professionals technology designed around the work they actually do.
I write and speak about the lessons that connect those worlds: agency, ownership, technology, African enterprise and building a useful life.
How I work
Know the work. Make it practical. Build the table.
Useful products begin with a serious understanding of the people, pressures and decisions inside the industry. I value work that helps people think more clearly, move with agency and create opportunities that did not exist before.
