Where we invest

We like to invest in companies that have a clear product or service differentiator, a team that is committed to the business and evidence that customers are not only prepared to buy but are delighted by the result.
It’s a difficult and specific ask – but if you provide those three element, and your future projections are not crazy, then we are interested.

Why TTV?

We understand that companies with a strong product and team frequently have a choice of funding options. So why would you choose Two Tower Ventures to join your team?

We have done it before, and continue to do it now.

All the team members and advisors continue to have a hands-on approach with part-time executive roles in the industries and sectors we look to invest in. This means we not only understand what it takes to build these businesses but also that our contacts and knowledge are current and relevant to new entrants.

We only invest in what we know – and can help build, together

  • We don’t look for best numbers, we look for the best team and products - after that the numbers look after themselves.
  • We are a small team and make our decisions very quickly.

We are happy to help – even if we don’t directly invest.

We frequently meet excellent teams that, even though we don’t invest at this stage, we introduce to our contacts in the investment community that we feel are a better fit.
We understand as a founder starting out, it is hard to decide who to approach and who will bring value to your venture. If we can help, we will.

Funding

We understand that companies with a strong product and team frequently have a choice of funding options. So why would you choose Two Tower Ventures to join your team?

Industry Sectors / Products & Services

We prefer to invest in sectors and products that we and our advisory network have knowledge of and look for products and services that solve real world problems.

Financials

Financially, we prefer models based on growing annual recurring subscription revenue over consultancy or one-off sales. We would rather see a 2-year model of achievable results than a 5-year plan that promises world domination.

Funding

Due to the time we spend with the investee companies on an ongoing basis we rarely consider investments below £500K - however this is flexible for co-investments where we are not the lead investor.

Our ideal investment size is between £500K and £2m per deal (or up to £5m as a co-funder).

If you believe your company meets most of the criteria above, then please get in contact — we may well have the missing piece of the jigsaw for you.
