We are a women angel investment group offering a fresh approach to make angel investing more accessible for women and to provide new sources of capital for companies with diverse leadership and a clear social ethical or environmental purpose to grow.
We are excited to introduce our Associate Membership category - which now includes the opportunity for men to co-invest alongside our women angels.

If you’re passionate about driving meaningful change, we’d love to have you involved.

📍Board 180 is a collaboration between Mint Ventures and Focused For Business changing the approach to investment to be discussion led rather than pitch led.
The 2nd sessions are happening next month, with more boards planned for later in the year.

Kindly supported by British Business Bank Scotland.

UK tax benefits - things you might not know.

You can defer Capital Gains Tax by reinvesting existing capital gains into EIS-eligible companies and deferring this tax until you sell your EIS shares.

UK tax benefits - things you might not know:
SEIS offers generous benefits for very early-stage start-ups: 50% income tax relief which means if you invest £5k you get £2.5k back, on investments up to a max of £100K per tax year.
EIS is 30% which means 30% of your investment back.
