Chris Starkey

Director

Chris started his professional Career in 2005 by raising money for developers throughout the UK. He soon progressed to Senior company manager, leading a team of over 50 staff at one of the UK’s fastest growing property sales and distribution companies. Chris also played a pivotal role in the expansion of distribution channels throughout Asia, China and the Middle East.

It was at this time Chris developed a unique skill set in understanding the needs and requirements of more affluent investors. He went on to set up a Private Equity Division specialising in Tax efficient Investments in the UK. Here, he assisted startups with Seed Investment, along with growth funding for post revenue companies and pre-IPO situated companies.

Since then Chris has raised millions of pounds for new start up businesses, and has developed strong relationships with a wide range of entrepreneurs and Investors. In recent years Chris has played an integral role in the development and commercialisation of innovative technology companies, two of which have grown from “idea stage” to being valued at over £50 million.

Chris has a drive and passion for trying to find the next “Big Thing” and has a unique ability to negotiate lucrative opportunities for Bure Valley’s network of Investors.

When Chris is not in work mode he switches off by spending time with his wife Kiera and two young boys. Charlie & Louie. Chris’s hobbies include; Anything to do with the sea! Scuba diving, Kite Surfing or just taking the boat out with his boys for a spot of fishing.

Antony joined Bure Valley Group early this year as a company Director. With his invaluable skill-set and extensive experience in financial management, he works directly with high profile PE companies and High Net Worth individuals to support their financial and investment needs.
