Crowdfunding platform Seedrs has appointed Albion Drive to handle its tech and entrepreneurial PR brief.

Seedrs aims to grow its base of innovative entrepreneurs and start-ups seeking capital through the platform.

Albion Drive will be responsible for raising awareness of Seedrs amongst the business and tech press, working alongside the firm’s finance and investment PR agency Beacon Strategic Communications, led by director Martin Campbell. As part of a big push to attract talented entrepreneurs the agency will be working to increase awareness of Seedrs amongst the wider tech and start-up community.

Fund manager Nicola Horlick has just launched a campaign on Seedrs to raise seed capital for her new venture Glentham Capital. She is seeking £150,000 investment, and she is offering investors 10% of the equity of the business. Once raised, the fund will provide finance for Hollywood films. 

Albion Drive recently announced that Daily Telegraph enterprise and business club editor James Hurley will join the team as director of content strategy in September.
