Celebrating Sheffield Digital’s 10th Anniversary - with Mel Kanarek and Chris Dymond

In this episode you’ll find out why Sheffield Digital was set up ten years ago, what has happened over the years, and what the future holds.

Mel and Chris, two of the Co-founders and Directors, return to the podcast to celebrate ten years of Sheffield Digital. They discuss whether their initial expectations for Sheffield Digital have been met, most memorable moments, biggest achievements and changes, and what is still to be done.

Note: Sorry for the low quality sound at the start of this episode. It improves after the first 10 minutes.
