TTP Ventures provides venture capital for early stage science and technology companies based in the UK and other Western European countries. It is a member of TTP Group, one of Europe’s most successful innovation companies. Access to the wide ranging experience and contacts of TTP’s people helps us to contribute a high degree of added value to the businesses we invest in, as do our relationships with the investors in our fund. These include Siemens Venture Capital.

Sectors of interest to us include:

	telecommunications, information technology and electronics;
	high technology engineering and instrumentation;
	healthcare, medical devices and drug discovery technology;
	materials and chemicals.

We typically invest £0.5m to £3m per company, but can also make seed capital investments of as little as £50,000.

So far our first fund has had three successful exits - Element 14 ($250m), Alphamosaic ($123m) and Oxford Diffraction ($37m).

Companies must usually have strong proprietary technology and good international growth potential. They must either be at an early stage in the development of their business, or undergoing a transition, for example, from a contract strategy to one based on developing and marketing their own products. Where there is significant long-term growth potential, we can also invest in ‘soft’ companies offering specialised R&D services.

We have particular expertise in spin outs from large organisations.

If you have high aspirations for your business, and believe we can help you achieve them, contact any of our investment team.
