Beyond the Cheque: Why Staying Involved Matters in Early-Stage Investing

How involved should an investor be? What does meaningful support actually look like? And how can investors add value beyond simply providing capital?
For this session, Michael Theodosiou, Investment Manager at Symvan Capital, was joined by two industry experts, bringing a wealth of experience across early-stage investing, building successful businesses, exiting as founders and developing active angel investor networks.
Together, they’ll shared their experiences and perspectives on investing in SEIS and EIS companies, and explored what meaningful investor involvement really looks like beyond the cheque.
