After leaving his military career behind, Bruce Leishman decided to embark on an entrepreneurial journey that led him to start KitUp.
His love for the outdoors, his experience in the Army and understanding the impact of adventure sports on physical and mental health inspired him to create a platform that could contribute to people enjoying skiing, mountaineering, kayaking and so much more, in a sustainable and cost-effective way.
In this interview, Bruce shares his experience, what drove him to start a company, what KitUp is all about and why veterans should use it. He also gives his best tips on how to find your own path and what to do if, following a career in the Forces, you feel compelled to start your own business.
