Private Investments
Introducing buyers to sellers in terms of venture capital and private equity was an idea hatched and nurtured by Seonaid Mackenzie.
With over fifteen years experience in the US public equity markets, Seonaid noticed how the entrepreneurial spirit encouraged in the United States was less enthusiastically received in Britain and Europe.

There’s more to raising money than raising money.
Sturgeon Ventures takes particular care to match personalities and skills. Seonaid will personally speak to all the companies who send a proposed business plan; after an initial conversation she will set up a meeting to ascertain whether or not the BP is suitable to be presented to the investment community. If not she will assist the company in making it so,and then suggest the best route forward.

This next stage may be introducing a company to an investment bank or venture capital group. Or recommending a reputable firm of accountants or lawyers. A company may require a strategic partner such as an internet-oriented design group or a database management company. Or the recommended next stage may be an immediate introduction to a high net worth individual.
Our private investor groups comprise of qualified professional investors, family trusts or those who have recently sold their own companies and are looking for an investment in which to take an active role.
Finally, Seonaid Mackenzie co-manages a portfolio of global public equities with a primary focus on the US and mainland Europe. As a passive door opener for companies seeking joint venture partners or investment from companies in similar industry, this has proved a unique asset.

Sturgeon Ventures and a leading UK Investment Bank are currently putting a Private Equity fund together, to work in conjunction with some of our partner principles such as Virtual-FD.com. We look to being a mentor to our companies. We will also look at US companies looking to start a UK/European company, and we will help them not only with funding but also with JVs etc. Our exit in this scenario will be when the companies IPO in the US. The fund will focus on high growth companies, particularly focused on high tech, telecoms and leisure. The investment team have over 42 years combined experience in the smaller companies arena in the private and public markets. We will be raising £30m to invest in projects looking to raise £250,000-£4m and then co-investing with other groups for larger deals. If you are interested in receiving a prospectus please fill in our information page, and note that you would like to be added to the mailing list for this purpose. The minimum investment will be £25,000, anyone investing £250,000 or more will have co-investment rights alongside the fund for any larger deals.
