Method & Source

This record is double-sourced: it joined when the purchase and, where the company has traded on, the exit could both be read in primary accounts rather than inferred.

These sources name who runs the business and when the firm invested, rather than saying in a sentence that the searchers bought it. One backer gives the trade and says it invested in 2017 and exited in 2022, naming no person. The other's table names Steuart Botchford and Sam Hyde against 2017. The company's own site names Sam Hyde as president and says nothing about ownership or about how he arrived.
