Equity Finance

Funding from £50,000 to £2 million

Equity finance is widely accepted as an important ingredient for businesses with potential for high growth.

Equity finance can be particularly important for new and innovative companies with high growth potential as it can provide long term backing to fund business growth through to revenue and profit. In simple terms, equity financing is the raising of capital through the sale of shares in a business.

CIOSIF has particular interest in supporting equity investments, helping the region to become a vibrant and sustainable venture capital market.

An equity-based investment could be right if you run an established business with ambitious plans, or a large start up with high growth potential.
