The South West is at a critical juncture – at the nexus of gaining the critical mass to be a real player in the global tech scene.
There have been great strides in this recently with more active business angels and even some new funds based in the region. However, there is scope for a tremendous amount more from investors, financial advisers and other shades of wealth managers.
Speakers:
- Simon Tutton, Deepbridge Capital, focusing on a recent white paper from Hardman & Co that quantifies the benefits of including venture capital in client portfolios for all but the lowest risk investors;
- CEO of an example company who is based in the South West and has had funding from both local business angels as well as a regionally focused VC who has major support from advisers in the South West.
