With over £335 million under management across 19 separate funds and loan schemes, The FSE Group is in a unique position to bring exceptional deal opportunities to its network of business angel investors.

With all potential investees having been through FSE’s thorough vetting process and already successfully secured equity or growth debt funding via FSE, investors can be confident in the quality of deals on the table.

FSE Business Angels have recently co-invested in the following companies from within FSE’s wider portfolio:

• Inyanga Marine Energy Group provides specialist services for the delivery of offshore renewable energy projects and is a world leader in the development of tidal energy technology. To date the business has received over £1.75million of funding from the FSE managed Cornwall & Isles of Scilly Investment Fund.
• Easology has developed software that transforms the user screens of phones and tablets, making them easy to use for older persons or those with visual or dexterity impairment, helping to ensure the digital revolution is accessible to everyone. To date the business has received £300,000 from the Enterprise M3 Funding Escalator.

These businesses are using the latest technology to drive innovation in their fields of operation and all are making significant strides with the funding and wider support provided by FSE.

FSE’s Investor Network Manager, Trevor Jones, commented: "As entertaining as a dragon’s den style event may be, we know that our investors are busy individuals focused on high-quality deals. The opportunities we bring them have already been through FSEs robust due diligence process and come with the extensive support and expertise of FSE’s dedicated Investment Managers, helping to maximise the potential for a successful future exit.”

The FSE Investor Network remains an exclusive platform for active angel investors. Spanning all sectors, the network offers investment opportunities in high-growth businesses that, importantly, are backed by FSE-managed funds. Our angels share a breadth of entrepreneurial, professional, and business experience and typically invest between £10,000 and £50,000 in each company, sometimes more.

Angel Investor Kevin Maguire, said: “The FSE Investor Network regularly brings forward high quality businesses with an ‘edge’, giving FSE members the opportunity to co-invest alongside an established and reputable funder who supports their portfolio companies beyond funding, to flourish and grow.”
