Equity Gap's annual dinner and awards ceremony took place last night at the luxurious Edinburgh George Hotel. Equity Gap is an Edinburgh-based syndicate helping to match private investors with young entrepreneurial companies looking for early-stage business funding. This fabulous event brought together the portfolio of company's so well supported by one of Scotland's leading Angel Investment groups.
"The room was filled not only with entrepreneurs but fellow investors, advisors, and critical partners such as Scottish Enterprise which is a source of matched funding in Scotland. When I am asked what makes the investment community in Scotland unique this evening answered the question. Ambition, Partnership, collaboration and support aligned with capital - wonderful to see." - Russell Dalgleish, Founding Managing Partner of Exolta Capital Partners

"We heard from guest speaker Kerry Sharp, updated attendees on a year of exceptional fundraising and commercial performance for the portfolio, marked a second year as sponsors of Edinburgh Rugby and celebrated Equity Gap’s own achievements. It was a real challenge to pick winners for our awards, as we’ve seen many outstanding performances from portfolio companies despite difficult market conditions." - Equity Gap

Trading performance: Sunamp

Company of the year: EnteroBiotix
Congratulations to Equity Gap, fellow syndicates and individuals in their achievements by risking capital to support fledgling innovation in Scotland!
