Episode 18: The Gymshark Effect

To kick off Inspired Sounds 2026, we’re joined by the incomparable Steve Hewitt, former CEO of Gymshark, who led the brand’s journey from £4m in revenue through to the almost mythically rare unicorn status, reaching a $1.45bn valuation in 2020. For any entrepreneur, this is success at the highest level. In conversation with Divisional Director, Nick Jones, Steve reflects on his deliberate departure from the corporate playbook including a process of unlearning which led to the cultivation of a values-led culture rooted in a simple idea: being a good human with a strong moral compass. So, when you’ve achieved a once-in-a-generation success… what comes next? Tune in to this fascinating episode to find out.
