Advantage Early Growth

edit

The £8m Advantage Early Growth Fund (“AEGF”) is a region wide, venture capital co-investment fund set up to assist early stage businesses with growth potential and based in the West Midlands. AEGF is a trading name of Advantage Early Growth Ltd, an independent company, limited by guarantee, set up specially to operate the Fund.

Small, rapidly growing businesses usually absorb a great deal of capital to fuel their expansion. Traditionally they have found it difficult to raise that money from high street banks, which tend to be concerned about the risks involved, and venture capital funds, which are usually seeking larger investments in more established businesses.
