Equity Gap is a group of private individuals set up to invest in and support emerging and growing businesses. The group are particularly interested in assisting young companies that have achieved the SMART award and businesses that have gone through a pre investment commercialisation process. They will consider other high growth companies but they
must demonstrate a strong market and a clear investment exit strategy.
Companies that Equity Gap invest in will be provided with ongoing business expertise and continuing support. Funding will typically be between £20,000 and £500,000. Where possible this will all be from Equity Gap, however they may work with other syndicates and Scottish Enterprise Co-Investment Fund to achieve the required funds.
They meet once per month in central Edinburgh. At the meetings they usually have 2 presentations from companies, discuss current investments and review plans that they have received and circulated in the past month.
