venture capital
Investing in ground breaking startups
Many of the Momentum Capital team have been successful entrepreneurs in their own right and understand the pain and success of starting and scaling a business. We are keen to invest in start-up businesses to help them achiever their vision and objectives.
What we look for
Sectors
We are typically sector agnostic. Instead we are more market focused, as with our private equity investments. That is to say, we like to see opportunities in markets which are growing and where there are no dominant players. To give some guidance here is an incomplete list of sectors we do and don't invest in:
DO INVEST: Fintech, Agritech, E-Commerce, SaaS, Cleantech, AI, Robotics, Cybersecurity, IoT, Blockchain
DON'T INVEST: Pharma, Life Sciences, Medtech, Health, Martech, Crypto, Gaming, Cannabis, Web3, Metaverse, Retail, Sports, Luxury Goods
Type
Innovation, not invention. We look for innovative solution presenting a novel approach at the leading edge of industry trends. Likewise, it should involve a disruptive technology that changes industry dynamics and is hard to replicate or patent-protected. The innovation could also be a clever solution that addresses a critical market need by alleviating a significant problem.
Stage
Momentum Capital is a growth capital investor. That means we will seek to invest in a company's Series B-Round and follow on in following investment rounds. Selectively, if we love your business and would like to invest in a B-Round, but you're at an earlier stage, we may help you get there by introducing you to the right investors for your start-up.
Size
In B-Rounds, we would typically expect to invest upwards of £10m.
