Julie Marie Meyer is a businesswoman based in the United Kingdom.

Early life and education

Meyer was born in Dearborn, Michigan.[1] In 1988, Meyer graduated from Valparaiso University with a B.A. degree in English Literature[2] and moved to Paris.[3] In 1997, she received an M.B.A. from INSEAD (Institut Européen d'Administration des Affaires).[citation needed]

Career

Meyer moved to London in 1998 and worked at NewMedia Investors (later known as Spark Ventures) from 1998 to 1999.[3] In 1998, Meyer co-founded First Tuesday, a networking forum designed to build an online community to connect entrepreneurs and investors, which was sold in 2000.[3][4][5]

In August 2000, Meyer founded the investment advisory firm Ariadne Capital.[3] In 2009, Meyer announced the Ariadne Capital Entrepreneurs (ACE) Fund,[6] which has since been dissolved.[7]

In 2009, she was a panelist in the online version of Dragon's Den.[6] In 2010, Meyer was selected as one of 26 business people tasked with advising the British government on its business policies to encourage entrepreneurship in the United Kingdom.[8]

In 2012, as CEO of Ariadne Capital, Meyer was part of an advisory committee led by entrepreneur James Caan called StartUp Loans that was funded with £82.5 million.[9] In 2015, Ariadne Capital was ordered to pay £50,000 after a contract dispute related to StartUp Loans was heard in court.[10] In 2016, Ariadne paid a £64,500.90 judgment as ordered after a contract dispute with a former employee.[11]

In 2014, Ariadne Capital hired the public relations firm Lansons Communications.[12] A Lansons employee contacted Wikipedia and the communication was posted on the Talk page of the Julie Meyer article.[12][13] Ariadne filed a lawsuit against Lansons for more than £100,000 in damages, and Lansons counterclaimed for about £76,000 in unpaid fees.[12] The litigation settled with an undisclosed sum paid to Lansons.[14]

In April 2018, a summons was not successfully served on Meyer in a case in Malta where Meyer claimed to be attempting to pay employees, and her attorney confirmed the money was available and would be paid.[15] By May 2018, the summons continued to not be successfully served on Meyer, and the Malta court indicated the case would continue until Meyer or her co-defendant appeared for a criminal case, regardless of whether the payments were made.[16]

On 11 May 2018 the Malta Financial Services Authority (MFSA) suspended the investment services license of Ariadne Capital Malta Limited with immediate effect, alleging multiple "serious breaches of license conditions".[17][18]

Since 2018, Meyer is sole director of Viva investment Partners AG, a company registered in Switzerland,[19] managing a UK-registered investment vehicle with negative shareholder equity.[20]

In February 2022, Meyer was sentenced to a six-month suspended sentence by the High Court in the UK, following a judgment of contempt of court for failure to appear in court hearings and follow court orders in a case brought by attorneys Farrer & Co, based on allegations of unpaid fees.[21] Meyer unsuccessfully appealed the suspended sentence.[22]
