Business Hub: A Marketplace for Neurodiversity-Focused Innovation
The Business Hub brings the third sector into the heart of CareConnect. It provides a space for small and large businesses to list products and services that support neurodivergent children and their families—from adaptive furniture and sensory toys to therapy centres, nutritional services, and inclusive travel providers.
CareConnect’s advantage lies in its user base: it’s a highly engaged, focused community of families and professionals already invested in improving the lives of neurodivergent children. Businesses joining the platform gain direct access to this audience, while parents benefit from tools specifically designed to help them find the resources they need—without the noise of general online marketplaces.
CareConnect regulates communications to ensure parents aren’t overwhelmed by ads. Businesses must go through approval processes and can only engage users through specific channels. However, they gain access to analytics that show them where demand is high—like geographical hotspots or user interest trends.
The platform also promotes collaboration. A business might team up with an NGO or host a training event through the Community Calendar. These touchpoints turn the Business Hub into more than a directory—it becomes a place where innovation is encouraged, piloted, and brought to market faster, through real-time community feedback.
Why this matters: Many parents have niche needs that can’t be met by generic products. By showcasing businesses with specialised solutions, CareConnect makes innovation accessible, speeds up adoption of new tools, and ensures carers are empowered to choose what best fits their family.
Real impact: A parent looking for a chewing-resistant pencil case or a quiet hair trimmer now has a trusted space to find it. A small startup with a new sensory toy can find its perfect audience without costly marketing campaigns. It’s a win-win—solutions meet the people who need them most.
