A Swiss venture capital firm founded by former Dragons’ Den investor Julie Meyer has gone into liquidation with around 435,000 Swiss francs (£400,000) of open claims against it, according to reports.
VIVA Investment Partners AG (VIP) began liquidation proceedings on 18 August, with an official notice published by the Meilen district court, the Daily Mail reported. The newspaper cited Swiss business magazine Beobachter as reporting that the claims were owed to tax offices, IT firms and small business suppliers.
Meyer, 60, founded the Zollikon-based firm in 2018 after moving her business operations from Malta to Zurich, the Daily Mail said.
