Karen had formed this amazing Family office members club. Having joined, I have made so many high network quality connections, opportunities to invest in others available ( more vetted and approved) and to even find funding where appropriate. Karen’s network is vast and being kind, generous and well knowledgable in her field, I recommend that this is one charming and charismatic philanthropist glowing soul , a wonderful business woman/ friend you have to meet. Thank you Karen for all your hard work and inspiration you and the group community has brought me. I love attending all the associated events. Can’t wait for the exclusive butterfly charity ball in March.

SustainOnline engaged the services of Karen G2E in 2018 to support the Preparation of our documents to raise Investment and business development of Global partnerships and Investment Events in London. We are very pleased with Karen’s performance and can only give Karen our best recommendations.

Karen is one of the most dynamic and driven women I know, her network is vast which enables her working partnerships. Karen has successfully raised investment across multiple sectors, however her specialism is Tech, shes a key note speaker at Fintech and always attracts an audience. On a personal note Karen has supported me in numerous endeavors, including my most recent appointment as Director for T4C UK Ltd. I am sure anyone who seeks out Karen’s services will receive the same vibrant, knowledgeable yet honest opinion on their business strategy, and will value her expertise.

Karen has remarkable energy and enthusiasm for fundraising and investor relations. I attended a family office investor event in emerging technologies organised by Karen and I was highly impressed by the eclectic range entrepreneurs and investors at the event. I attend many events in the venture capital and startup sector and none were as eye-opening and stimulating at the one that Karen organised. BRAVO! I look forward to keeping in touch with Karen and hopefully working on projects together in the future.

As an overseas investor, I have attended a few of Karen’s events and am pleased to say, that it is the best opportunities for looking for fresh and innovative investments for any potential investor.  Not only is Karen’s events very enjoyable to attend from both a professional and social standpoint, she also seems to have an innate sense to select investments and opportunities that she knows will appeal to her investor’s appetites, whereby the program and itinerary flows systematically from speakers to presentations,  the audience is assured to have a selection of quality investments options at the end of the event. On addition, I know that Karen personally screens and selects each proposal and opportunity, not only based on the potential, profitability and viability of the project, but also based on each individual founder and merit, so therefore I have full confidence and no hesitations in exploring taking up offers and investment opportunities that I receive from Karen’s events.

I had the pleasure of working with Karen in 2019 as a Key Note Speaker and Judge for our Africa Start Up Gate Summit 2019. Karen has continued to support our Tunisian Eco system and that of the MENA countries and her experience that she shared with the delegates at the Summit was and it to this day far reaching to inspire and educate Entrepreneurs in this region. I also know that Karen continued her networking with Inviting some of our Delegates to London to her Family Office Events and some of our Entrepreneurs attended her Accelerator Program. Looking forward to working further with Karen for the future of not only Tunisia as we grow but also the MENA area.

Karen gave me some fabulous advice on an investment deck she really knows her stuff and would recommend anyone to reach out to her

I first met Karen through a network of Women in Tech in London and then as a client of PwC which then developed into the Scale Program London Manchester Karen then used her wide investor networking skills to source us investment globally and advise re networks and our documents. Though we raised Karen continues to communicate with us and we will be using her skills for 2019 next stage raise Series B

Learning and having experienced keynote speakers attend was a valuable aspect of the conference

Mind blown!! Karen’s Gateway2enterprise Investment Readiness Accelerator Program exceeded all of my expectations. It was intensive and highly rewarding. All of the speakers were excellent, highly engaging and extremely relevant. With several of the speakers having already gone through the process of starting up successful companies, it was fantastic to get an insight into their experience and mindset. The associated Investor Summit also afforded the opportunity to pitch to, meet with and get invaluable feedback from real investors. Thank you Karen!!

Karen is one of our business partners. She was a speaker in our conferences in Zurich and London. Speakers are welcome to invite up to three VIPs to join our conferences. We were always surprised by the amazing guests she brought along. She has a unique way of collaboration and is an intelligent, generous and authentic business partner. We are honoured to be able to collaborate with her.

I met Karen at her Accelerator Program with Key Stage Ventures: ‘Investment Readiness’. I was initially impressed with Karen’s and her team knowledge, so I asked them if they would like to help us raise our first round of investment. We started working together during the Pandemic COVID-19 and within this period we raised £250k with a Family Office and the option of further investment. I liked their approach. They allocate their team members to parachute into your company to look at your strategy, structure and then work with you daily. Karen lead on raising the investment through her global network of investors and also supported us with the Term Sheets; while Matt guided us on our company structure and management. I would recommend and endorse Karen and her team if you wish not only to raise investment but also put together/review your fundraising strategy. We will continue to work within them and be part of their Accelerator Program to present at their Annual Family Office Conference on October 2020.

I had the honour of knowing Karen for couple of years now, she is one of the most energetic dedicated and passionate fund raisers I have ever met. Through her family office events in Mayfair London, I came to discover a gem in the family offices business, she would always make sure you are in the right place to connect with suitable leads. Karen is real asset for any startup wanting to raise considerable funds, the key which will open many doors for founders. (99+) A. Saed Alzein | LinkedIn have had the pleasure of attending a number of Karen’s events and they are always very well managed and provide interesting projects, along with up to date business themes.

Karen and her firm Gateway2Enterprise are the gold standard when it comes to fundraising for technology startups. Karen is super intelligent, creative, well networked with private investors and extremely professional. She is also a genuinely caring person. I highly recommend Karen and Gateway2Enterprise to anyone.

“Karen hosted a Family Office event exploring some key issues and opportunities in the Climate Change arena. Keynote speakers were all highly knowledgeable and compelling, while new and emerging talent were able to showcase how impact investing by family Offices could make a real change in this crucial area. The whole event was well managed and calibrated by Karen and her team, and I very much look forward to future events.” Matthew Hulme MDJ Partnership
