Bayes Entrepreneurship Fund

The Bayes Entrepreneurship Fund is a £10 million venture capital fund, investing in early-stage, high-growth businesses. Entrepreneurs of all backgrounds will be considered for funding, not only graduates of Bayes Business School (formerly Cass). Businesses must have some revenue traction, and will have typically received a first round of concept-stage or seed funding. Initial investments range in size from £250, 000 to £1, 000, 000, depending on the stage of business development, the funding structure, and the overall finance requirements of the investee company. Given our background and networks, we tend to be more focussed on B2B businesses, but have previously backed successful management teams in the B2C space, and remain open to such opportunities. The Cass Entrepreneurship Fund can act as a sole investor or as a lead or minority co-investor with other institutions, funds or private angel investors. We will typically circle a level of funds for follow-on investment rounds, which will be considered on a case by case basis as the company grows. The Fund has a cross-sector investment remit, but requires that businesses are headquartered in the UK.
