Endeavour Ventures Ltd raises money for growth businesses from HNW and Sophisticated investors. We have directly sourced >£150m for portfolio companies directly from individuals typically looking for EIS opportunities.

We make very few investments each year and work hard to create successful outcomes. We tend to make thematic investments into fast growth markets, always seeking the most experienced management teams and the most scalable models. Our opportunities are often driven by regulatory or technological change. We are amongst the few growth EIS investors able to demonstrate a successful 12 year track record.

We typically seek board representation and consider ourselves to be key partners in the enterprise.

We differentiate ourselves from a VC or angel investor group, in that we make fewer investments each year. We try to ensure that our companies are fully funded. We are not driven purely by brokerage fees on funds raised. Our model has no management fee and depends upon achieving exits.

Specialties: Finding investors for scalable fast growth businesses that do not yet qualify for institutional investment, but have potential to become the global businesses of tomorrow.

Due diligence of market opportunities and management teams.

Valuation and structuring of deals.

Sourcing of investment.

Strategic partnerships.

Portfolio highlights: 1. Aim-listed Blue Prism Group plc, into which we invested initially in 2006. In 2017 it topped £1bn market cap, making it our first “Unicorn”, before falling back just below that level. 2. Ebury Partners, which we invested in in 2012. 45% of the company was sold to Santander for £375m in 2019.
