Bridges Ventures is a privately owned fund management company with a social mission. It is a founding principle of our company that all the funds that we raise will set out to achieve a clear social purpose as well as aiming to achieve financial returns for investors.

Our approach is to try to bring the best of venture capital to the businesses in which we invest. As part-owners in the business we back, we work hard to provide the support our portfolio companies need to succeed. We offer advice and guidance based on our own expertise; as well as that of our network of business contacts and successful entrepreneurs.

The diverse investment and entrepreneurial experience of our team enables us to work closely alongside our portfolio companies to help them thrive and grow.

We are an active investor, aiming to provide support and advice to the companies we back including helping build effective boards.

Our founders, directors and investors are leaders in private equity, financial services, business and entrepreneurship. They provide valuable expertise and a huge network of contacts for Bridges Ventures. This in turn helps us work with our investments to give them the best chance to flourish.
