The world No.2 has made three investments of an undisclosed sum on London-based crowdfunding platform Seedrs, as the sector that allows large numbers of people to invest small amounts of capital to finance a business venture continues to move into the mainstream.
Murray has invested in healthy eating chain Tossed, which has already raised more than its 750,000 pound ($1.17 million)target.
He is also investing in 3D virtual reality shop builder Trilennium, which is backed by online fashion retailer ASOS, and in e-commerce investor Fuel Ventures, Seedrs said on Wednesday.
"The three businesses I've chosen to kick off my crowdfunding investment portfolio are all in areas of industry I find interesting.
Healthy eating is something I have to be passionate about as a sportsman, so Tossed was immediately one to consider, and the other two businesses are really pushing the boundaries of technology," Murray said in a statement.
