Equity Ventures is a venture capital firm which specialises in helping management teams do an MBO.

We manage a venture capital fund whose investors include HSBC and the European Investment Bank. We always try to co-invest with management on the same terms as them so that our interests are as closely aligned as possible.

We are keen to meet management teams wanting to do the MBO of a UK company with annual sales of between £2 million and £200 million.

You can approach us with an idea for a transaction; an executive summary; or a full business plan. We'll come back to you pretty quickly if we're interested.

We have an online spreadsheet model for outline structuring of a venture capital backed MBO. Put in some variables relating to your business and look at the different effects of debt and equity ratios. Try it now.  Click here to see our MBO structuring model.  Or call us to help you get to grips with the major factors that make a venture capital backed  MBO a success.
