Rosie Dallas

Rosie Dallas is an entrepreneur and the former Chief Executive Officer of Fat Llama, a peer-to-peer rental marketplace based in London. She co-founded the platform in 2016 alongside Chaz Englander and Owen Turner-Major to allow individuals to rent out their unused belongings, scaling the business across the United Kingdom and the United States. Under her leadership, the company participated in the Y Combinator accelerator program in 2017 and secured venture capital funding from institutional investors including Index Ventures and Blossom Capital. Dallas guided the startup through significant operational growth, ultimately facilitating its strategic acquisition by the Swedish rental platform Hygglo in 2022 for approximately $41.5 million. Following the transaction, the combined entity formed the largest peer-to-peer rental platform in the European market. Her entrepreneurial background centers on building, financing, and scaling consumer marketplace platforms within the circular economy.
