Our take
Seamless is a hedge fund with a rather different origin story and approach. Founded in 2013 as a side project by Cambridge alum William Beauchamp, who had already made a small fortune as a poker player, the firm focuses on alternative markets such as sports betting and crypto currency.
While the company’s AI-driven algorithmic trading approach is no longer a new thing in the industry, what sets Seamless apart from other trading firms is that it doesn’t actually focus on hiring finance experts. Rather, the team is made up of mathematicians, AI software developers, astrophysicists, and professional gamblers.
It’s an unorthodox approach, but considering that the company’s value has surpassed £100 million, it seems to be paying off. There’s no sign of Seamless Capital resting on its laurels either, with its eyes fixed on an international expansion for which it’s rapidly increasing its headcount.
