British Patient Capital
Our mission is to enable long-term investment in innovative companies across the UK led by ambitious entrepreneurs Read morePatient capital is crucial for growing smaller ambitious companies into world-class businesses.
The UK provides a fertile ground for innovation to thrive, but a lack of access to patient capital continues to hold back some UK companies from scaling up and fulfilling their commercial potential. British Patient Capital will enable greater availability of this type of long-term finance and will help build the UK’s innovation economy.
British Patient Capital has been developed as a separate subsidiary of the British Business Bank and builds on a successful 10-year heritage of investing £1bn into UK venture and growth capital.
