... connecting investors
with founders raising capital
The Circle is a carefully curated Investor Network built through years of nurtured relationships.
The process is simple. Founders submit their funding requirements along with their Investor Deck, and investors share their investment criteria. Each match is then made with care, discretion, and a focus on quality.

The Circle Investor Network provides not only business opportunities, but also a place at private invitation-only social Investor Evenings in Mayfair London.
Over the years, Dasha has hosted numerous gatherings, and built an impeccable reputation for providing high quality opportunities and tailored introductions.
The right connections can change everything.

I'm Dasha White, and if you’ve landed here,
chances are it's for a reason.
For 20+ years I've been building businesses,
curating communities, and working with investors,
emerging funds and founders across every stage.
A chartered accountancy background means
the creativity comes with a structured mind, and
the ability to build sustainable workflows and bring calm to chaos.
With a genuine passion for bringing people together,
I have a natural eye for angles others tend to miss -
to scale, to invest, to collaborate.
The way I work with investors and founders comes from
the same place: integrity, discretion, and, before anything else,
a real interest in the person behind the opportunity.
If you see synergies, I’d love to connect.

Struggling to get replies from investors?
I review your Deck for anything missing, contradictory or inconsistent with your brand story, and show you exactly how to close each gap and make it more compelling in the current market. Your Deck can also be reconciled against your financials, so every figure holds up, and prepared for AI screening.

Raising capital? Most founders exhaust themselves with investor outreach, sending the same Deck to everyone. I match your outreach to investors who suit your stage, funding instrument and business model, tailor your Deck to each one, and introduce you only once genuine interest is confirmed, so you stay focused on running the business.

Working hard but not seeing the outcome you expected? The Growth Strategy Audit examines your operations, revenue streams and sales funnel, to pinpoint what is working, what is not, and where you are losing momentum. You will receive a clear, actionable plan that shows you exactly where to focus first and which changes are likely matter most.
Marketing not delivering the leads you need? One of the most common reasons is a misalignment between your branding and your target audience. With the Brand Identity Audit, you will receive a full review of your digital presence across your social channels, as well as an assessment of your customer personas and market positioning, to identify where the disconnect is and how to fix it.

Work with a Mentor who understands both the business and the journey, helps you stay focused on your priorities, navigate big decisions and make progress when clarity matters most.

Dasha is an incredible networker and has a level of emotional intelligence that elevates her among many. She truly respects a good work ethic and has an astute ability to assess good business opportunities. A delight to know on many levels.

I have known Dasha’s work for a while now. She makes the effort to understand, clearly and in depth, what you are actually after, and puts forward only what is considered and worth your time. Real integrity, a sharp instinct, and a genuine eye for a good deal.

We were growing fast and pivoting in too many directions at once. Dasha came in and reviewed our business strategy, identified priorities, and brought the whole brand under one umbrella in a way that finally made sense. She is an absolute pleasure to work with, and highly inspirational!
