Sheaf Valley: a show about Sheffield's startups is a podcast dedicated to imporving the entrepreneurial landscape in the Steel City by giving another platform to local founders, investors and startup support employees but also by increasing the connectedness in the region.

In this episode, I spoke with Patrick Speedie, co-founder of In-Part. Patrick shared his exciting story about In-Part's creation, growth and recent acquisition. He also opens up about the challenges he went through and what should young founders do make sure they are not working on a invalid business idea. Then he finishes with the details around In-Part's acquisition - why, how and what's next for him and his company.
