Can we launch our dream design business in just 3 months before the money runs out? We were unexpectedly pushed off a cliff when we were made redundant from our tech start-up jobs and decided to go all in our dream.Armed with a passion for creativity, deep-tech start-up know-how and a sheer determination we’re sharing our all-or-nothing journey in real time. Each week, we’ll share real-time wins, setbacks, and behind-the-scenes flashbacks to projects that led us here. Will we make it, or will the clock run out? Tune in to join the adventure and see if we can bring this dream to life!
