The London
Technology Fund (LTF) is London’s specialist investor in new
technology companies. It is focused on the funding gap for new, high growth
technology companies based in Greater London.
LTF bridges the funding gap by
leading and building a syndicate of investors or by completing the gap in an
existing syndicate. The fund is happy to work with investors already known to a
company or to help entrepreneurs find investors. It has developed a streamlined
investment process with an initial web-based application that helps
entrepreneurs identify and provide the essential information needed for prompt
decision-making.
The Fund
can invest in a series of tranches over a number of years alongside other
investors, contributing up to a maximum of £1.5m from its own resources to the
total investment made in a single company.
The London Technology Fund is funded by the London Development Agency and the European Regional Development Fund. It is managed by Company Guides Venture Partners Ltd, which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority.
