EP04: Bouncing Back From Failure With Imelda Fossu

Today in the guest chair I am speaking with Imelda Fossu, founder of Fossu Ltd- a group of high growth internet companies, Start Up Consultant and former CEO at LETUSFINDIT, a fashion search engine that compared and and collaborated on clothing from major companies including Nike, Puma, Topshop and ASOS. But, a few months later, things started to get interesting at LETUSFINDIT when the site started to experience a few issues. Imelda later found herself trying to keep the business afloat- from taking our business loans to pursuing personal loans. We talk all about Imelda's rise as a Tech Founder and how quickly things can change and fall apart.

After shutting down LETUSFINDIT, Imelda found herself in over £100k in debt with her confidence completely knocked. In this episode, we talk about Imelda's journey from building a business, shutting it down and starting again having learned some of the very harsh lessons of entrepreneurship. Imelda has also worked as a Start Up Consultant and has been recently appointed as Capital Enterprises latest Entrepreneur in Residence.
