Without any further addo… introducing ETT HEM London:
Overview
Ett Hem London is redefining the flower game — and doing it in style. Founded by Elle King and Sarah Radovich, the brand offers hyper-realistic, design-led faux flower arrangements that feel as luxurious as the real thing, minus the waste, cost, or constant upkeep.
Think: quarterly bouquets that ship in chic gift boxes, last forever, and look good enough to fool your mum into putting them in water (yes, that happened!). With high-profile clients like Net-a-Porter, Buckingham Palace, and the Royal Opera House, Ett Hem London is carving out a premium lane in a $59B global market.
The founding team brings deep expertise: Elle, an award-winning Design Director with over 14 years of experience in homewares, interiors, and fashion, brings a creative vision that’s both stylish and sustainable. Sarah, with more than 13 years of experience scaling consumer startups, drives the commercial strategy and market expansion that’s fueling Ett Hem London’s growth.
They’re selling direct to consumers in 22 countries, scaling retail and B2B, and already turning heads in Vogue, Elle, House & Garden, and Harper’s Bazaar. This isn’t your grandma’s faux flower brand — it’s a whole new category.
Novabook is the accountant for startups. It’s built by tech entrepreneurs who scaled their previous UK startup to 15M users and achieved an 8-figure exit. Frustrated by the lack of quality financial support for founders, they set out to create what they wished they had: responsive accounting services by accountants who get startups. Whether starting, raising, scaling, or planning to exit your business, the team at Novabook can support you at every step.
Stephen, their founder is a great guy and investor on the Shaman List — it’s all family here.
