About the Fund

Royal Society Enterprise Fund announces first investment - 06/08/09

The Royal Society Enterprise Fund is an exciting new initiative from the Royal Society, created to make equity investments in innovative early-stage businesses emerging from the science base in the UK and elsewhere.

The Fund leverages the Royal Society's unique advantages, including the unrivalled technical and scientific network, the extensive science policy work and the flexible time horizons for investment. The focus is on early-stage investment opportunities and the Fund is run on a commercial basis.

In order to ensure long-term sustainability, the Fund is financed from donations to the 350th Anniversary Campaign. The Fund is intended to be evergreen, with financial gains recycled for reinvestment in future innovative technology-based opportunities.

The operation of the Fund complements the many other activities supported by the Royal Society and designed to encourage the exploitation of science for societal benefit.

The Fund has the philanthropic support from visionary leaders including Adrian Beecroft, Roger Brooke, Hermann Hauser, Stelio Stefanou and Lord Sainsbury of Turville.
