Growth Generation Fund

A new, uniquely structured fund specifically tailored to give individuals between the ages of 18-35 the opportunity to invest in fast growing UK companies.

Why we launched the Growth Generation Fund

We have observed a growing interest in venture within the 18-35 year old Growth Generation through our deal flow, our portfolio companies and the team's personal network and so we have created the Growth Generation Fund. This is the first fund of its kind which is structured to provide a younger generation of investors with access to very low cost and tax efficient venture capital investing in the UK.

MMC launched this fund in January 2010 (with no fees) because we believe Growth Generation investors will be an invaluable source of exciting, fast growing companies; a collection of talented individuals who could be great additions to the management teams of our portfolio companies; and a source of prime strategic input into emerging trends in the new economy.

The minimum subscription to the Growth Generation Fund is £2,500, and maximum £10,000, which MMC will invest in at least four businesses within 12 to 18 months. The Fund will invest exclusively in companies that are EIS-qualifying at time of investment, often alongside our EIS Fund.

This fund is not currently open for subscription. However, we intend to re-open it during 2012, so please do let us know if you are interested in hearing more about the Growth Generation Fund.

 

Key aspects of the Growth Generation Fund

  • Accessibility - significantly lower minimum subscription of £2,500
  • Low cost - no initial subscription fee or annual management fee
  • Simplicity - no time involvement required after the initial subscription
  • Tax benefits - EIS tax relief provides enhanced investor returns (through income tax relief and capital gains deferral) and downside protection
  • Diversification - within 12 to 18 months the fund will be invested in four EIS qualifying companies
  • Transparency - investors receive a quarterly update, annual tax package and portfolio valuation (independently audited by KPMG)
  • Access to portfolio companies - we organise an annual investor event at which our portfolio companies are represented
