On the trail of the dotcom queen: how Julie Meyer left a pattern of unpaid bills, missing funds and broken dreams in her wake

A Guardian investigation traces the arc of Julie Meyer, once celebrated as one of London's most prominent tech entrepreneurs, through a trail of alleged financial harm stretching from Malta to Switzerland across the past decade. The reporting is careful and specific, drawing on accounts from people who worked with her and found the reality of her ventures at odds with the promises made. The story is a useful corrective to the mythology of founder charisma, and a reminder that the structures meant to protect investors and collaborators often fail quietly.
