In this insightful conversation with Jonathan Keeling (JK), we explore his journey from CrowdCube executive to partner at Haatch and founder of Edge. JK shares his experience scaling CrowdCube to £14M revenue before venturing into entrepreneurship, where he worked with startups like Winefy as fractional CCO. He reveals the backstory of House of Unicorns, the TV show concept with Brewdog's James Watt that aims to bring authentic startup stories to television.
JK candidly discusses balancing parenthood with startup life and how this influenced his career choices. The conversation shifts to his work at Hatch, where he's transforming SEIS/EIS fund access for retail investors, and provides valuable insights into fund management challenges and the importance of sustainable growth in early-stage investing.
Join us for this fascinating look at the UK startup ecosystem through the eyes of someone who's experienced it from multiple perspectives.
