Who I am

Wearer of many hats

Funding Requirements

I invest in the early startup stages (where I have most of my operational experience). I've built marketplaces, consultancies, SAAS and B2B2C businesses, and have a biomedical background so have an interest in biotech as much other sectors! I invest in team, market and product (in that order).
