Profile

We’ve been helping ambitious and exceptional entrepreneurs build brilliant technology businesses since 2013. We’ve backed the founders of more than 50 companies including CryptoFacilities, Mapillary, Ravelin, Stripe, Thought Machine and Trouva.





We were founded by an angel and our values drive everything that we do. Like the best angels, we are supportive, passionate investors. Nothing excites us more than working closely with founders to build successful companies.





We invest early and enthusiastically in founding teams around the world, with a focus on the UK. We thrive being a generalist tech fund with the flexibility to look at a broad range of companies. Each member of our team has particular areas of interest and focus.
