ARIE Capital raising £10m EIS fund with eye on Chinese market 4 Feb 2021
New fund from veteran financier offers path for tech companies to enter the vast Chinese market with its 1.4bn potential customers
ARIE Capital, the London-based venture capital fund, is raising a £10m Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) fund to back up to six tech start-ups.
What makes ARIE Capital different is that it offers portfolio companies not only follow-on funding through its £26m VC fund but also a way into the Chinese market with its 1.4bn customers.
The fund manager is giving itself until March 31 to raise the £10m and has already identified its first four investments.
