South West Ventures Fund

The South West Ventures Fund (SWVF) is one of nine English Regional Venture Capital Funds. SWVF, which is managed by YFM Group, was established in 2002 to provide risk capital of up to £500,000 to small and medium sized (SME) companies in the South West of England.

SWVF has reached the end of its investment period and is no longer able to make new investments. The Fund is now focusing on its portfolio companies, supporting them in their growth and development.

YFM Group manages in excess of £280 million of funds with investment sizes ranging from £50,000 to £5 million. Principal offices are located in Leeds, Manchester, London and Bristol with over 45 investment professionals being employed across the UK.

It is possible that one of the other Funds managed by the YFM Group may be able to help fund your venture. If you have an opportunity you would like YFM Group to consider, please forward a business plan to the the Bristol office or complete a web application.
