Speakers

Ryan Welmans

Chief Executive Officer - Sopro

Rob Harlow

Chief Innovation Officer - Sopro

The first in our series of founder talks hosted by the Founders Hub team where we explore the warts and all journeys of business founders who’ve gone on to establish successful businesses. We explore some of the bumps. potholes and craters the founders of Sopro – Ryan and Rob encountered on their journey growing the business to £1m monthly recurring revenue and 200 employees.

We know it’s not all rainbows and butterflies when it comes to starting, running and growing a business. After the initial buzz of starting up, the romance and excitement of something new is often replaced by a realisation things are quite hard and that every decision has consequences. Some of these consequences are good, some bad and some of the bad ones can be really bad. In these sessions we chat through some of these bad decisions, what happened and how to avoid or fix things if you find yourself in a similar pinch.
