Get to know us
Building better businesses
We are a growth equity investor specialised in scaling businesses with business models driven by technology, customer insight or service excellence.
We aim to work with ambitious management teams who want the support of a flexible long-term investor who brings capital, insight and expertise.
The team has been working together for over 10 years and has made over 100 investments into growth businesses.
What we invest in
We are growth investors. Our aim is to ensure that every business we are involved with maximises its potential for the benefit of all shareholders.
We back ambitious businesses that compete on strength of technology, customer insight or service excellence. We have deep experience and networks across consumer markets, TMT, service sectors, and healthcare and education.
We have worked with many businesses pursuing a range of different strategies for accelerated growth including international expansion, new product development, accelerated organic growth, strategic acquisitions and buy and build platforms. Due to the extensive public markets experience of Gresham House we are also uniquely positioned to be lead investor in pre-IPO and IPO situations.
Don’t just take our word for it, take a look at our exceptional entrepreneurs.
Helping companies to scale
Proactive, flexible and consistent
We understand every company and situation is unique. We can invest right across the lifecycle of a business from late Seed stage, through Series A and subsequent rounds, to initial public offering and beyond.
Our aim is to help you to capitalise on the opportunities presented to you whilst helping navigate challenges that arise by using our experience, network and capital to deliver transformational growth.
We can invest from £1m to £20m in each company either as a lead investor or as a significant co-investor. We are flexible in our approach and we respond dynamically to the needs of each business whilst communicating consistently and transparently as a highly experienced investor.
More than just money
We specialise in scaling businesses
We have invested over 100 times. We recognise the journey only begins after a company raises capital and it is vital that we can offer more than just money as ambitious businesses work through the strains of growth. Our role as investor is to help management teams understand and predict the levers or blockers within their business to release growth.
We work with our investees through Board representation, deploying our market-leading network and in-house experts, and a suite of growth accelerator services which can help step change business development.
Support areas include:
- C-suite recruitment via our Talent team
- HR strategy and organisational design
- Strategy and business planning
- Marketing and pricing
- Customer acquisition capability
- Digital analytics
- Exit planning and financing options
- IT/Tech strategy

We think like owners and treat capital carefully.
We are bold in our drive to achieve excellence on your behalf as much as we are in our own business.
