I've always felt a bit indebted to the world. It's hard to not feel extremely fortunate and privileged growing up in this part of the world with supporting family and friends. Any success I might have is not just my own. It feels good to commit now to give back later. Founders Pledge makes this incredibly easy. It really is a revolutionary approach that is taking the startup scene by storm. Keep up the great work!
Originally from the Netherlands, Daniel studied law in Oxford and Leiden and worked for nearly 6 years as a finance and M&A lawyer at an international law firm. He realised that law was a wildly old fashioned industry that was doing very little to keep up with shifting customer expectations. Also he saw that most lawyers actually didn’t enjoy working in a large firm. He founded Lexoo.co.uk - an online marketplace connecting businesses to prescreened ex City lawyers to address this problem. Lexoo has raised over £1.1M in investment from a range of investors including Forward Partners.
