Braveheart is run by an executive team of three, who report to a board of directors. All the directors are also investors. The executive team look at a large number of unquoted investment opportunities each year. From these they will select a few that match certain criteria. Once an investment has been structured, and due diligence has been carried out, the opportunity is sent out to the syndicate members in the form of an investment memorandum.
Investors decide individually whether they wish to invest and if so at what level.
No investor is obliged to invest in any opportunity. However, investing in unquoted companies is highly speculative, and investors should appreciate that valuations can swing widely in either direction. We will invest from as little as 25,000 to as much as 1,000,000. If more is required, we are happy to invest alongside other venture capital houses or business angels. We also invest in businesses that are in rescue or distress situations.
