About the Follow-On EIS Fund
The Fuel Ventures Follow-On EIS Fund makes follow-on investments in existing portfolio companies. It targets the 5-8 of the best performing companies in our portfolio who need additional capital to accelerate their already proven growth.
A follow-on investment decision from the Fuel Ventures EIS Fund goes through a rigorous decision-making process, which includes approval by our experience Advisory Committee and Investment Committee.
By having most of our portfolio companies based in our co-working space, we have a good understanding of which of our companies are fast growing and could benefit most from follow-on investment. This means we can deploy the fund in a short period of time, giving EIS investors the ability to carry-back their tax relief to the previous tax year.
