Founders Private Capital was born from a collection of entrepreneurs who founded their own businesses, raised private equity funding before successfully scaling and exiting.

As a result our investors / key decision makers understand what is involved in building a successful business, the ups and downs of being an entrepreneur, and the pitfalls of trying to deliver growth.

Our approach to investing is very flexible and collaborative – we can provide passive capital as well as full hands on support to help you achieve your ambitions – and anything in between.

Our members have ear-marked £87m of capital to be deployed over the next 24 to 36 months in founder-led businesses.
