Masters Series

In Masters Series we regularly bring you real-life stories from entrepreneurs and start-up founders.

The GFC peaked a week later, but that wasn't the only challenge the universe had in store for him. Graham Van Damme is the Managing Director of Jag Capital. As a mining engineer, he bought into the business he was working for and began growing profits immediately.
