Seedrs allows users to invest as little as £10 into the businesses they choose, and lets early-stage startups and more established businesses raise investment in exchange for equity in the business. Jeff began his career as a corporate lawyer with Sullivan & Cromwell LLP in New York and London, and he serves as a Non-Executive Director of Companies House.
