Founded in 1991, JP Jenkins is the UK’s oldest platform for private companies. We help companies engage with existing shareholders and prospective investors to manage their private share holding. We open the door to investors to access opportunities and help early stage investors realise a return on their paper wealth. Our mission is to provide an efficient process of matching willing buyers and sellers of unlisted company shares. The JPJ platform allows unquoted companies to potentially create shareholder liquidity and long-term engagement with existing and prospective investors. JPJ was a founding member of AIM and OFEX, now AQUIS (AQSE) exchange. We have previously had companies such as NCP, Arsenal, Weetabix, Adnams and many more.

Mountside Ventures was formed to optimise the fundraising process between European startups and investors. Firstly, they help the most ambitious entrepreneurs raise their Next Round of funding, with terms that are right for them, and causing the least amount of disruption to their business. Secondly, they connect the most promising Venture Fund Managers with forward-looking Limited Partners to promote the flow of venture capital into the European ecosystem.

At Obu, we’re building a critical mass of forward-thinking angel investors – both women and allies – who believe their capital, connections, wisdom and support can create a more equal, progressive, innovative start-up ecosystem.  Too many innovative, purposeful entrepreneurs are falling through the cracks in a manmade system. We need change. And to level the playing field for women entrepreneurs, we need to provide more women and ally investors with a practical platform to invest in them. So that’s what we do at Obu.
