Sam Gyimah
Direttore/Membro del Consiglio presso Blume Equity LLP
Profilo
I am a board director, strategic advisor, and venture partner, operating at the intersection of private capital, business and government.
I draw on insights and a toolkit developed from my decade-long experience at the forefront of politics as a lawmaker (Member of Parliament) and Government Minister, and a decade in investment banking and business before politics.
Experience in the public and private sector has given me perspectives on the complex interaction between geopolitics, high-level policy making and financing the innovation economy.

Lakestar, Venture Partner / Advisor (part time) one of the largest European growth venture funds, where I focus on fund development and investment in the private/public and climate tech spaces.
