England
The Virginia Company was a joint stock company chartered by King James I of England. The Virginia Company of London successfully established the territory of Jamestown, while the Virginia Company of Plymouth was to establish a colony further north. The Plymouth Company failed when their colony of Popham, in modern-day Maine, failed in 1608. Plymouth, Massachusetts was established by the religious separatists known as the Pilgrims after securing a land grant from Sir Edwin Sandys, a major stockholder in the failing Plymouth Company. So technically, the Virginia Company sponsored both the Jamestown and Plymouth colonies, but the latter was a bit more unofficial.
His first voyages in 1607 and 1608 were sponsored by the Muscovy Company, which was a British company but not affiliated with the British Crown. His next voyage (1609) was sponsored by the Dutch East Indian Company, then in 1610 he was sponsored by the Virginia Company (which sponsored expeditions to Jamestown) and British East India Company. This voyage faced a mutiny and he was cast out to sea somewhere off the canadian coast. So the answer would sort of be England, but he didn't go directly to the King or Queen. Rather he claimed land for England but was sponsored by individual groups of people via proprietary companies
The London Company financed Jamestown. They were a stock company.
