Midven is the West Midland’s leading specialist venture capital company focused on investing sums of up to £1m into early stage and fast growing small and medium sized enterprises. Midven is a prolific investor and has a proven track record of helping companies to succeed and delivering high value exits. Midven has an experienced, energetic and hands on team that works closely with the management teams in its portfolio companies to ensure their growth strategies are aligned with achieving high value returns for all shareholders.
Our focus is on dynamic businesses with the potential to create a strong competitive position in a large growing market, helping them to achieve their goals and build profitable businesses with attractive exit options.
As an owner managed business itself Midven has a fundamental understanding of the day to day issues involved with running a business.
Our initial approach is to invest up to £500,000 into any one opportunity. Once we are involved, we like to see things through to success and have the capacity, and appetite, to invest beyond this in subsequent investment rounds alongside other investors.
We will consider start-ups, early stage, growth, management buy-outs and management buy-ins, in any sector. Our particular areas of interest however, are the Medical/Biotech, Environmental Technologies, ICT and Software and Service sectors, where our investment team has specific expertise and experience.
