Looking for investment?
We are interested in hearing from companies that can demonstrate:
- Significant impact potential
Ventures should demonstrate a clear potential to impact the skills landscape, with a focus on addressing critical gaps in the market and improving employability outcomes. - Adoption at scale
We seek scalable solutions, that are already revenue-generating, that can be deployed within the UK and potentially beyond, leveraging technology to reach large and diverse audiences. - Innovation in technology or model of delivery
Investments should represent cutting-edge approaches to skills development, utilising both technology and emerging methods of delivery. - Passionate Founder teams
We prioritise ventures led by experienced and committed teams with a proven track record in education, technology, or the specific industry they aim to serve. - Show an appropriate commercial upside
Ventures must show a scalable business model and strong market potential. We prioritise solutions with sustainable competitive advantages, effective customer acquisition strategies, and significant market penetration opportunities. A balance between financial sustainability and measurable social impact is essential.
We are intentional about diversity. We deploy our capital in a fair and equitable manner and believe that backing diverse founders will lead to better impact and financial returns.
