Investment thesis
Oxford Innovation Finance provides growth and development capital to innovative UK businesses through two routes: the OION angel investment community and the Oxford Innovation EIS Growth Fund. It focuses on early-stage science and technology startups developing breakthrough technologies, and offers tax-efficient (EIS/SEIS) investment options. The firm matches investors with vetted opportunities, hosts online and in-person showcase events, and supports founders through pitching, due diligence and follow-up meetings. Many investor members are entrepreneurs who contribute management expertise, contacts and industry knowledge alongside capital.
