- 18. Do not ask “Why?” • ASK: “What could I do with this?” • Purpose (Need or want? Pleasure or pain?) • Value (Make money, save money, save the world) • Impact (Food,Water,Air, Energy,Waste, QoL, Health, Happiness) • Practicality (Cost to “make” vsValue)
- 19. Raising Money
- 20. UK Investors want… A clearly differentiated, undervalued, profitable, well-led business with a vast global market which no-one else knows about… Tax-efficient UK baby funds want Unicorns – in fact their returns are generally so poor they HAVE to have Unicorns…
- 21. UK Investors (so all in £££s) Stage Who How much Valuation Pre-revenue Founders, FFF, Angels, ECF 0-500K 0-1M Pre-profit Baby funds, Angel networks, CV 250K-1M 1M-5M Profit Grown-up funds, FO, CV, “VC”s 1M – 10M 2M-? Scale Grown-up funds, FO, CV, “VC”s, PE Whatever it takes ? Consider: • SEIS and EIS • Teaser, presentation deck, detailed deck/plan, NUMBERS! • Traction and Momentum – “Proof of value” • Team & ambition
- 22. What you should know… 75% of early stage investment in UK is inside the M25 Most of this is under SEIS & EIS At any given time there are ~ 5,000 co’s seeking funding IN LONDON There is plenty of capital in the Capital It is hard to find the good opportunities (volume vs quantity) which can make for lazy investors
- 23. The B-Word
- 32. In summary In every area of R&D there are new waves coming Our job is to work out what we can use & how Raising money in the UK is a process, a club and achievable Brexit is an opportunity (if it happens) Kittens are more popular than anything else
