“Women don’t do different things in business, they do the same things differently.”

Trapezia EIS was the first UK venture capital fund dedicated to women’s enterprise. Backed by two institutional investors, HBOS and the Consensus Business Group, it closed at £4.5m and we’ve invested in 9 businesses – typically £250k to £500k in quality management teams with entrepreneurial drive and tenacity.

We have learned that women don’t do different things in business, they just do the same things differently. We recognize the distinctive attributes women bring to business – and our collegiate philosophy is rare among venture capitalists.

And don't just take our word for it. Look at our Investee Companies to learn more about the businesses we support and what difference that support has made to them.
