There are estimated to be over 40 angel networks in the UK. Equity platforms - Equity crowdfunding platforms allow retail investors to invest in many opportunities, often alongside venture capital funds and lead angel investors. The three largest players in the UK are Crowdcube, Seedrs and Syndicate Room. Angel Funds/Managers - There are an increasing amount of new EIS funds, which have a dedicated fund manager to manage committed capital to invest into EIS eligible opportunities. Investors in such funds can be angel investors, however they tend to be passive high net worth individuals. EIS funds can invest on a bilateral basis or also club together with a syndicate or platform.
