Smart capital to help grow sustainable business.
Who we work with.
We look for highly differentiated businesses with a minimum 2 year trading history, proven customer traction and potential for rapid growth. We believe that smart businesses, run by small, frugal teams actually need modest capital to successfully take on large companies and tackle big problems. Our investment approach is to provide incremental funding as the business grows and reaches certain milestones.
Our investment criteria.
Growth-stage funding of between £250K and £5m
Take a meaningful minority share
Simple investment structures
Invest directly into a company
Very long-term investment horizon
We value great execution far more than great ideas
Our approach.
We leverage deep global relationships to:
Generate proprietary deal flow
Access unique exit options
Enlist prominent institutional co-investors to pursue larger opportunities
We have the expertise to evaluate leveraged buyouts, growth equity, control-oriented strategic financings, unconventional business models, and nontraditional collateral packages. Our investments encompass the entire risk spectrum and involve some component of control.
