In 4 years, Eddie Whittingham went from working 9-5 (first as a policeman and then as a lawyer), to bootstrapping a cyber-security startup as a sole founder and selling it to a NASDAQ-listed company in a multi-million pound exit. Since then, he's bought an 1891 chapel and converted it into a premium co-working space in Greater Manchester, founded GoFounder.com (accountability for high-potential founders) and co-founded GrowGrows.com (a premium children's' sleepwear brand).
In this episode of the First-time Founders Podcast, Eddie describes how 'a daft lad from Scunthorpe' built a business and sold it to achieve a life-changing outcome for his family, with some of the mistakes made and lessons learned along the way!
