In this episode of Software Meets Business, we sit down with Matt Grennan, the founder of Sharpish, to hear his journey from construction business owner to tech entrepreneur. Frustrated by the challenges of staffing and recruitment in the construction industry, Matt set out to create a platform that would revolutionise how companies find and manage tradespeople—bringing Uber-like efficiency to hiring skilled labour.
We discuss:
✅ The real-world problems that inspired Sharpish
✅ The challenges of building an app with no technical background
✅ Lessons learned from dealing with app development firms
✅ Fundraising half a million pounds to bring the idea to life
✅ The highs and lows of launching and scaling a tech startup
Matt’s story is a must-listen for anyone looking to turn a business problem into a software solution. Tune in for an honest conversation about the realities of startup life, persistence, and making tech work for the real world.
