Since then we have invested in over 150 companies, many of which have achieved global success. We have one of the largest and most experienced venture capital teams in Europe. Professional, patient and supportive are all words that are used to describe us. We’re also noted for our commitment to maintaining strong relationships with management right through to exit. And we are viewed as high calibre investment partners by entrepreneurial companies and their advisers. We have substantial capital available for investment and manage funds backed by blue-chip institutional investors. Our focus is venture capital and growth stage investments in IT, healthcare and energy. As these sectors are increasingly converging, we are able to help companies capitalise on this trend through our integrated investment team approach. We enjoy the benefit of independent commercial perspectives through our own advisory board, which comprises experienced former and current executives of many world class companies. As well as our primary investments, we have partnered with FTSE 100-company SSE plc and manage a secondary investment fund focused exclusively on cleantech companies. “With our extensive range of leading eyewear brands, excellent customer service via our multi-channel model, and attractive prices we have been able to establish Mister Spex as the primary online retailer in the German eyewear market within a few short years. With SEP’s experience of building global high growth on-line businesses, and their long term and supportive approach to investment, we now aim to replicate that model across Europe.” Dirk Graber, founder and CEO, Mister Spex Glasgow 17 Blythswood Square Glasgow G2 4AD +44 (0)141 273 4000 London 29 St George Street London W1S 2FA +44 (0)20 7758 5900 Privacy Policy Sitemap Search: © 2014 Scottish Equity Partners LLP Authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority Registered Office: 17 Blythswood Square Glasgow G2 4AD Website: IfLooksCouldKill
