What we look for

Good foundations.
Room to grow.

We look for established UK businesses that do something well, are valued by their customers and have potential still ahead of them.

Potential is not always about becoming something different.
Sometimes, it is about growing into what is already there.

Potential, with the right support

Sometimes a business
just needs room
to grow into itself.

Like an oversized jacket, a good business can hold more possibility than it has grown into yet.

We look for that possibility: strong foundations, good people and opportunities that the right focus, resources and industry expertise can help realise.

It does not have to be a finished product. It needs something worth building on.

The foundations we value

What makes
a good fit.

We look at the whole business.
These are some of the things
that matter to us.

01 / Established

A business with substance.

A trading history, real customers and a clear role in its market.

02 / Reputation

Trust that has been earned.

A name customers value and relationships built through doing good work.

03 / People

A team worth backing.

People who understand their work, care about customers and want the business to succeed.

04 / Lasting demand

Something customers need.

Useful services, a clear customer need and reasons for that demand to continue.

05 / UK based

Rooted in the UK.

Established UK businesses serving their customers, communities and wider markets.
