Anna Josse

Josse, an Orthodox Jew who still lives on the same Hampstead street she grew up on, has sought to bring some business acumen to a sector many assume is less cut-throat, but in reality is highly competitive and increasingly regulated. Her credentials speak for themselves. On top of Prism, Josse co-runs private equity firm Regent Capital (with Prism co-founder Gideon Lyons), having earned her financial stripes establishing the European office of the tech start-up Yazam at the turn of the millennium, and burnished her charitable expertise establishing and running New Israel Fund UK in the 1990s. A Manchester University graduate (after a stunt at seminary in Israel) and former JSoc chair, she also worked at the Social Market Foundation think-tank.
