Provision of Services for Survey of Early Stage Equity

Notice Description

The University of Warwick has a requirement for a large-scale survey of small firms with a focus on the availability of equity funding for early-stage entrepreneurs.

The working hypothesis is that there remains an equity gap in early-stage equity at the PS250k to PS1m range, below the scale at which formal VC investments are typically made. This project is being funded by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) and Innovate UK (IUK).
