mtrx syndicate (pronounced ‘matrix’) is a UK angel investment syndicate established in 2016 with over 80 investors mostly based in the UK, with some in the US, Europe and Middle East. Our mission is to source the best UK startups, apply commercial diligence rigour from our corporate world experience and only present investment opportunities to our investors that we are personally investing into. Each investment opportunity qualifies for HMRC’s attractive SEIS or EIS tax benefits. After investment, we stay close to the startups through participation in board meetings and regular discussions to help them with their growth and challenges, keeping our investors appraised of key developments. We aim to follow on in subsequent rounds in future years and have done so several times for most of our portfolio. Our syndicate investors join mtrx syndicate because they want a curated handful of diligenced startup investment opportunities each year, but they are looking for more than simply a potential financial return. They want to be part of the growth journey, contributing and learning themselves along the way. After all, that’s the fun of startup investing. So if you are keen on a curated flow of diligenced tax efficient UK startup investments, and want to be part of an investment committee keen on having some exposure to the rollercoaster of startup life, mtrx syndicate is for you.
