What Others Are Saying

Karen has always made an incredible job when it is organising start-up/investors summit. I have great pleasure working with her, and she understands very well what are the needs from an investor perspective required to succeed, and what start-ups need to show to investors. She is enthusiastic and always full of energy. Passionate about her job, and her will to make companies she is working with to be successful. I only can recommend working with her, and I am pleased to have met her and been working with her.

It was an honour to have an honest account of your journey and achievements. You’re an aspirational lady. We are delighted to have won mentoring time with you.
Last evening was probably the best meeting I have attended. You managed to keep us to time (Ruthlessly) and despite the transport difficulties you had a goodly number of wealthies. The judges set the tone and were surprisingly kind and constructive which set the scene for the greet and meet session. I felt the rivalry, for when I came up somebody had moved our stand into the corner – a matter soon corrected. We had a lot of interest and I will respond to the players next

I enjoyed your event – you assembled some interesting companies, kept the pitching tight, fielded a top of the line panel, and led us out with a song – what’s not to like!

I had the honour of knowing Karen for couple of years now, she is one of the most energetic dedicated and passionate fund raisers I have ever met. Through her family office events in Mayfair London, I came to discover a gem in the family offices business, she would always make sure you are in the right place to connect with suitable leads. Karen is real asset for any startup wanting to raise considerable funds, the key which will open many doors for founders. A. Saed Alzein | LinkedIn

I attended a ‘Lunch and Learn’ workshop organised by Karen. I’m preparing to fundraise and the workshop was pitched at just the right level to demystify what’s involved when fundraising in relation to crowdfunding in particular. The length of the workshop was good too, timed to make sure we weren’t overwhelmed with too much information. Helpful slides, well presented. All in all, I now feel ready to start the fund raising process with confidence.

I was honoured to a speaker of one of Karen’s ESG Spring Investor event. I’ve known Karen for years and she is amazing to work with in the Family Offices. She is a trusted investor, friend and partner to co invest with.

Being a first-time founder can be very stressful sometimes, but I was lucky enough to get introduced to Karen who is a real treasure when it comes to connecting people and opportunities. Her personal warms and availability means, she is a natural mentor with a business hat on. She also has incredibly insights into the European startup ecosystem. I can highly recommend anyone to work with Karen.

Karen is one of the most dynamic and driven women I know, her network is vast which enables her working partnerships. Karen has successfully raised investment across multiple sectors, however her specialism is Tech, shes a key note speaker at Fintech and always attracts an audience. On a personal note Karen has supported me in numerous endeavors, including my most recent appointment as Director for T4C UK Ltd. I am sure anyone who seeks out Karen’s services will receive the same vibrant, knowledgeable yet honest opinion on their business strategy, and will value her expertise.
