Entrepreneur and Dragons’ Den star Steven Bartlett is preparing to launch a new tech news website later this month, as he expands his fast-growing media and business empire.
The publication, reportedly called Founded, will cover the technology and start-up landscape across the UK and US, according to City AM. Bartlett is understood to be hiring around 10 journalists alongside an editor-in-chief as he builds out a full newsroom.
A holding page on Founded.com has replaced the earlier preview content, but cached versions hint at the publication’s mission: “FOUNDED is a culturally fluent business publisher built for the founders of today… trusted by entrepreneurs, operators, and builders around the world.”
The move comes shortly after Bartlett unveiled a new parent company, Steven.com, and secured an eight-figure investment valuing the business at about £320 million. The firm, incorporated in the US, now houses Bartlett’s creator-led ventures including FlightStory, FlightCast, and FlightFund, with Bartlett retaining more than 90% ownership.
