Prince Andrew Strikes Controversial Deal Tied to Pitch@Palace Network
Duke of York is set to earn millions through a partnership with a Dutch startup firm leveraging his former royal business initiative.
- Prince Andrew has entered a financial agreement with Dutch company Startupbootcamp (SBC), leveraging his Pitch@Palace network to support global entrepreneurial ventures.
- Under the deal, Andrew will reportedly earn money for each successful deal SBC secures using his former contacts, potentially generating millions in revenue.
- The partnership comes after King Charles III cut off Andrew's financial support, including funding for his Windsor mansion and security costs.
- The agreement has drawn scrutiny due to Andrew's past controversies, including his ties to Jeffrey Epstein and allegations involving a suspected Chinese spy linked to Pitch@Palace's operations in China.
- Buckingham Palace has stated it has not reviewed or approved any financial arrangements between the Duke and third parties, though no objections were raised to initial discussions.
