Daniel King
Venture Partner
About me
Hi – I’m Daniel and I’ve spent the last two decades in executive and senior management roles within technology corporates as well as start-ups. I am an operator, advisor and investor with a focus on eCommerce technology, Fintech, Big Data, BI, Analytics, SaaS platforms, and Marketplaces for both B2B and B2C. I have extensive knowledge in investing, fundraising, and scaling high-growth companies including international expansion and have hands-on experience in building, managing, developing and retaining teams.
I’ve been involved with Seedcamp since 2010 as was in the first cohort of mentors. I joined Profitero, one of their portfolio companies, initially as an advisor, then as a non-executive director and later as President and COO and the company enjoyed great success raising more than $34m and expanding into the US, China, Japan and growing to over 300 employees, eventually being acquired by Publicis in June 2022 for $220m.
I have held a number of high profile roles and I was also part of the senior management team at Hitwise which was sold to Experian for $250m in 2007.
Today I advise many start-ups and sit on the board of several companies in the public and private sector including Fintech company Plus500 Plc which floated on the London Stock Exchange in 2013 and today has a market cap of over $2B.
From Day One
I help Seedcamp’s portfolio companies with all things regarding commercial and business operations and how to scale for success. I have a great global network of senior execs in corporates, start-ups, VCs, and government that I can tap into to open doors.
Looking forward to working with you as a Venture Partner!
