Mobius Life Science Fund
Mobius is focused on making early-stage investments in businesses in the bio pharma/medical technology and healthcare sector. It is run by a subsidiary of BioCity Nottingham Ltd,which is not only ideally placed as a focus for new opportunities, but also extremely well networked within the sector enabling high quality support for the businesses it invests in. Investments are normally made as a mixture of debt and equity, with the debt component coming from a collaboration between Mobius and Nottingham City Council, which is intent on doing its part to support one of the strongest and fastest growing sectors in the area. Mobius is unusual as it invests a lot of time up front in helping to develop early-stage business propositions and then usually takes an active role on the board to further help the company succeed.
