Jamie Macfarlane

Jamie founded Creator Fund in 2019. During his MBA at Stanford Business School, he saw how many of the world’s largest technology businesses were started at US universities. He believed that Europe had the same potential and launched Creator Fund. He has since helped scale it to 30 universities in 10 countries with a portfolio of 60+ companies.

Jamie worked for media-focused VC, Raine Ventures in San Francisco, and he was part of the Dorm Room Fund team at Stanford. Dorm Room were the first fund to pioneer the university-focused VC model.

Jamie was previously a political consultant and ran elections for leaders in 12+ countries around the world. This included running successful elections for the Prime Ministers of Croatia and Macedonia, and leading digital strategy for the Cambodian Democracy Movement in 2013. He also built communication conglomerate WPP's first office in Myanmar in 2013.

Jamie has a Double First degree in History from Oxford University. He speaks Spanish, studies the Middle Ages, writes sitcoms, and is trying to visit every country in the world before he dies (currently 99/197).
