AI Reasoning: Search results primarily show Martyn Williams as a journalist, founder of North Korea Tech, and fellow at Stimson Center. A Tracxn page lists investments (Options Away on Mar 2, 2015 and AMO Pharma) but Tracxn is a commercial database and may conflate different individuals named Martyn Williams; no reliable independent sources confirming recent investment activity or dates were found. The only concrete investment date located is March 2, 2015 into Options Away (startup: Options Away), which is more than 12 months ago. Given absence of trustworthy corroboration of investment activity and no verifiable recent investments, the conservative classification is not-found.
