of businesses that are
investment ready that are seeking capital in return for
their investors participation in the
equity of the business

access to businesses seeking funding of £100,000 -
£2 million. As the
investment is often coming from individuals this means that
they can share their
business expertise and contacts to the business –
a value beyond mere money

For larger amounts and specialist funding the forum will
provide directions for private
placements, venture capital funding, flotation’s,
asset finance and banking assistance
HOW IT WORKS
Suffolk Investors Forum have a multi-pronged approach and
introduce investors to investees and to give them the Technical
support to be able to successfully complete their investment:
- A
database of investors and businesses requiring funding is
maintained by the
secretariat for the SIF. This is used to match the needs
of both investors and
businesses seeking funding as run by the UK’s largest
angel funding specialist
-
Each proposal put forward is pre-vetted in order to ensure
their investors see
opportunities that have true merit and that the business
seeking funding has a clear
commercial focus. A list of founder members of the forum
is attached to assist you
- Regular
events will be provided for investee business to present
to registered investors
to promote their opportunity and for investors to meet and
develop commercial
links with those in attendance
- Between
the events the secretariat will provide a link to provide
direct introductions
of opportunities to investors that relate to the referred
area of investment and need that
they are interested in
- It
is often the case that investors and investees like to be
within 50 miles or a one hour
drive of each other. This means that they can have a closer
and in some cases a more
effective working relationship. This is why the emphasis
of the forum is based on Suffolk
investors and Suffolk businesses
- This
will provide for a 3 week period preference to Suffolk investors
to be able to meet
and discuss the opportunities available in Suffolk. After
this period the opportunities will
be promoted nationwide
- Though
the nationwide link Suffolk investors will also have the
opportunity to see
businesses seeking funding relating to their particular
area of expertise that may be
outside Suffolk or complementary to their Suffolk investment
operations
