My brilliant guests this week are the team from This Much I Know - Founder Emily Sheffield and Head of Partnerships and Reporter, Holly Beddingfield. In this episode, Emily tells us how she started This Much I Know, a news platform that puts genuine conversation at the heart of its delivery. Emily and Holly share the ups and downs of life in a startup incubator (Founders Factory), the fact that their brains constantly hurt and how they are building a sustainable media business in the free-information economy. With Emily’s 25 years experience as a journalist and editor (former deputy editor at Vogue) the team has big plans for This Much I Know and is on a mission to drive positive change. Enjoy!
