Bridging the equity gaps?

Raising money to fund a growing business is one of the hardest tasks for any business owner. We believe that there are a number of notable points in a typical company's life when equity is the best form of capital. Family and friends, business angels, venture capital trusts and other VC firms all have important roles to play. And BGF is now here to help growing companies bridge the greatest equity gap - the one that can take them from being a successful regional company to a great national or even international brand.

BGF is a new, and critical, part of the business ecosystem for British SMEs. Alongside our capital and support, we want to be seen as a source of honest information to help business owners, policy makers and future entrepreneurs understand the challenges and options for fast growing companies; equipping them to make better decisions.
