LOOKING FOR INVESTMENT?

We invest equity only, with no preferential terms, and provide significant business experience and networking opportunities to our portfolio companies.  We seek to invest in companies with high growth potential and global application and are prepared to become involved at all stages from proof of concept through growth capital in a wide variety of business sectors.  To find out more about our investment criteria and our decision making process please visit the INVESTMENT section.


WANT TO BECOME A MEMBER?

We are always keen to attract new investor members and welcome the opportunity to meet with potential members to discuss our approach to investment.  We are an unregulated activity in terms of the FSA and therefore rely on certification of members as either High Net Worth Individuals or Sophisticated Investors as defined by the FSMA 2000.  Unless otherwise stated, all investment opportunities are carried out under the Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) rules and therefore attract tax benefits.  Please visit our INVESTORS section to find out more about membership.

Our office is based in Central Edinburgh and provides resources for reviewing all investment opportunities and monitoring the performance of portfolio companies.  We have also been appointed as the largest partner of the Scottish Co-Investment Fund  which provides matching equity funding of up to 50% (£500k max) on any qualifying investment if required.
