Investments

NESTA is one of the UK's largest seed-stage investors.

Our fund is a compelling demonstration of how a blend of private and public capital can drive world-beating, innovative UK companies. It is a model which is increasingly becoming replicated across the country.

We combine capital investment with non-financial support to help the UK's innovative early-stage companies turn their ideas into commercial success.

We have strict investment criteria, and only work with companies that have high potential for growth, are at seed or start-up stage, and have the potential to attract syndicated support.
