In 2023, Anotherway Ventures was a new firm seeking to enter the SEIS/EIS venture capital market.
the challenge
To successfully navigate the sector’s intricate regulatory landscape, the company required an experienced FCA-authorised investment manager. One with proven industry integrity, capable of ensuring a compliant, streamlined, and effective fund launch.
the solution
Sapphire was appointed to lead the launch of the Anotherway Ventures Fund, drawing on our extensive sector experience as a trusted investment fund manager. Leveraging our expertise and regulatory credentials, we oversaw the fund formation process, with the Anotherway Ventures Fund formally established in February 2023.
The fund’s mandate focused on three core categories of consumer-brand businesses: those launching a brand, scaling an existing brand, or re-positioning a brand for renewed market growth.
the results
The collaboration between Sapphire and Anotherway Ventures resulted in the successful establishment of the Anotherway Ventures Fund in early 2023, just one year after the firm’s inception. This achievement underscores how steadfast commitment, operational excellence, and aligned objectives can deliver timely and effective fund launches.
Through the combination of Sapphire's experience and Anotherway’s strength in consumer-brand development, the fund was launched successfully, targeting SEIS and EIS investment opportunities.
