IW Capital is a believer in the long-term growth potential of Britain’s rapidly expanding community of scaling businesses. Since 2010, we have been investing and scaling mid and lower mid markets businesses with capital and with the experience of the Investment Team to ensure they are positioned to meet their full potential.
The Investment Team have collectively over 50 year’s of experience in SME investments, helping to support the founders and management teams grow. IW Capital are sector agnostic with a UK focus. We look for growth, buyout and equity release investments.
We are looking to back strong management teams, with a focus on attractive and growing businesses. We have a strong preference to invest in profitable businesses, but we also back younger, revenue generating businesses and turnarounds where we can see a clear route to profitability.
IW Capital is able to provide the support that a growing business needs through successive rounds of funding if required. IW Capital works closely with investee companies, becoming a supporting owner and manager for the medium to long term.
Growth / Development Capital
We provide established companies with the necessary capital to facilitate organic or acquisitive growth.
Management Buy-Outs
We provide strong management teams with the funding they need to purchase the business and take control of a private company.
Equity release / Replacement Capital
We can help eligible business owners to diversify their wealth, enabling management shareholders to realise part of their capital whilst continuing to drive the business forward.
We believe in backing good management teams and their plans. We become supportive funding partners; we do not manage the businesses. IW Capital has an extensive network and is able to draw on this to provide expertise and contacts to our portfolio companies.
