Why We Exist

Let’s be honest: finance is broken.

The funding world rewards networks over merit. It’s still London-centric, overwhelmingly white and male, and more focused on chasing unicorns than building lasting value.

We’ve been there. We’ve seen brilliant founders ignored, credible businesses passed over, and entire regions of the UK underfunded.

So we built something different.

Founder Capital partners with ambitious, underrepresented entrepreneurs. Investment opportunities are exclusively available to certified high-net-worth individuals and self-certified sophisticated investors, as defined by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA)We invest in:

• Founders building real businesses with social relevance and commercial strength

• Startups solving meaningful problems, not just chasing trends

• Professional services platforms that want to scale without selling their soul

And when we win, we share:

• A fixed % of profits supports the UN Sustainable Development Goals

• We’re on the path to B-Corp certification

• ESG isn’t a sideline—it’s how we operate

This isn’t charity. This is conviction.

The best businesses of the next decade won’t be the loudest. They’ll be the ones who build patiently, deliver consistently, and give a damn.

We’re here to back them—and to give our investors a stake in that future.
