Holistic childcare for the modern world. MEplace represents a new dawn in childcare; creating a new approach to children’s wellbeing and preschool education. MEplace is a space where children and parents come to experience the very latest in child development. Offering a mixture of a Private Club, coupled with the ultimate in daycare, MEplace will offer a holistic approach to children’s preschool education and psychological development - a structured educational system bespoke to the childrens individual developmental needs and representing cutting-edge thinking in children’s education and care. MEplace will be based in a beautifully designed space, serving mostly organic plant-based meals and fostering a healthy lifestyle from the early years. At the heart of everything we do is a great love for children. Initially, MEplace will open in East London, with the ambition to quickly roll out across the city.

At Semper, we use liquidity to align the interests of private companies, team members and investors. We help forward-looking companies attract and retain builders by giving them real ownership of the value they create. We created Semper because the start-up world has changed. Staying private longer has given companies the freedom to grow on their own terms. But it has also significantly increased “time to liquidity” for the team members who create much of the value. Companies should be able to remain private while enabling those builders to benefit from the wealth they create - aligning incentives and encouraging greater growth. In order to do this, Semper has pioneered venture liquidity finance to help companies unlock their biggest asset – equity – for their other biggest asset – their team members. This ensures everyone stays aligned on long-term value creation. Companies may worry that recurring liquidity events will be complicated to manage- but they shouldn’t. Semper’s Team Liquidity Programs make it seamless for teams to have the opportunity to de-risk and benefit from their hard work, while keeping their company’s captable simple. We believe that team members are the unsung heroes behind many iconic companies’ success. Hence, our goal is to empower companies to share their wealth on fairer terms. This will create a virtuous loop in our ecosystem - putting more resources into the pockets of builders and supporting companies to innovate and grow. As entrepreneurs & investors who have built liquidity programs for a range of innovative companies, we understand what different stakeholders in this ecosystem need. That’s why Semper is so easy-to-use and reliable and why we focus on creating value for all stakeholders as well as being well-governed, properly regulated and backed by top investors.

Our mission is to help more people start better startups. ODF is a program we created over four years ago to help those at the exploration stage of starting a company. So far, weve helped over 1000 companies get started and raise over $2 billion. Starting a company is really exciting, but there are so many things you need to figure out in order to actually build one. - "Who might I start my company with?" - “What might we build?” - “Who might our initial customers be?” - “Should we raise funding soon, or should we try to bootstrap in the beginning?" These and many more questions are what we refer to as the "missing pieces"—the things you need to figure out to know if starting a company is right for you and what company you should ultimately build. With ODF, we bring together 80 to 100 people who are at the very same stage as you. Theyre all exceptionally talented, and theyre all trying to figure it out together.
