Episode 85: The Story of Playfair Capital 🟢

from The Healthtech Podcast · host Dr. James Somauroo

We're obviously still in the midst of COVID-19 and if you're anything like us at HS., you'll be locked away, thinking, strategising, and coming up with new ideas, new innovations, even new businesses... When we all emerge, you may well be looking for investment and so this episode is a conversation I had a few weeks back with Chris Smith, Managing Partner at Playfair Capital. Chris focuses his investing activities on seed (and pre-seed) deals in the UK and Israel and has a particular interest in HealthTech having gone in for uMed, who you might recognise from a very episode of this podcast and Vine health who recently did a £1M seed round. Chris loves finding companies operating in unloved/overlooked sectors that are ripe for disruption and you can hear all about him, his background and his investing right here. https://www.playfaircapital.com/  | https://www.linkedin.com/in/cdgsmith/ www.hs.ventures Twitter @HSVenture Instagram @hs.ventures Linkedin at HS. email us at [email protected] Your can get our host, Dr. James Somauroo at: www.jamessomauroo.com Twitter @jamessomauroo Instagram @j_soms Linkedin james-somauroo
