Many thanks to <A HREF="https://www.linkedin.com/in/richard-blakesley-09b5ba/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Richard Blakesley</A>, co-founder and CEO of <A HREF="https://capitalpilot.com/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Capital Pilot</A>, the London-based platform for tech startup fundraising. Richard is also leading the launch of Autopilot, the “Robo-VC” co-investment fund, which will invest based on signals from Capital Pilot's startup assessment tools. Autopilot offers investors ultra low-cost diversified exposure to SEIS and EIS qualifying tech assets. Capital Pilot is the 13th startup Richard has been involved with in the past 15 years, so he has plenty of experience – good and bad – to draw on. Before moving into the early stage technology world Richard spent 15 years as a mergers and acquisitions specialist for Lehman Brothers, Chase Manhattan and JP Morgan, where he was Managing Director in charge of telecoms and technology M&A.
