Founded in Yorkshire and funded by us

Fitain was not born in Silicon Valley, Harvard University or even London. The team behind Fitain are from Leeds, Yorkshire. We weren't helped by any "tech incubators" or given any seed funding.

In true Yorkshire fashion, through sheer will and determination, we built Fitain around our full-time jobs in a digital agency. We also funded the entire project ourselves.
