Startups in Shoreditch: Invoiceberry CEO Uwe Dreissigacker
Uwe started his first business as a hobby when he was 14 years old, and his first successful national business at the age of 16 - an online gaming company which had at its peak over 300,000 players. As well, as a spin-off, he created an online advertisement company which boasted over 1 billion ad impressions per month within one year, and created revenues in excess of half a million Euros. After moving to London, he decided to take a break and concentrate on completing his Bachelor in Entrepreneurship before he started his newest venture, Invoiceberry, a simple, fast and effortless invoicing service for small businesses.
Outsiders from the City

With my company’s offices caught between the business-like, uniformed City, and the funky and laid back Shoreditch area, I’m able to get a glimpse of both areas. To the right: proud signboards promoting banks and law firms opened over a century ago. To the left: colourful graffiti walls none less iconic than the bank signboards. As I go for a walk during my lunch break I can wander to either side.
