We have the technology
Article Abstract:
The high cost of financing early stage investment opportunities has traditionally deterred investment companies from backing innovative high-technology ventures in the UK. The UK government is seeking to encourage the developement of high-technology early-stage companies by changing the taxation system and setting up assisted schemes which make it easier for venture capital firms to provide funding. Early stage companies in the biotechnology and communications industries are particularly desirable for investors.

Fighting to keep deals local
Article Abstract:
Business deals requiring expert financial advice in Southampton, England had previously been dealt with by local accountants or by professionals based in London. To remedy this unsatisfactory situation a company who could supply expert corporate financiers was founded in the locality. In any deal corporate financial advice is of paramount importance as they can act as facilitators and negotiators. This is increasingly important as many deals involve investors from overseas and are therefore more complicated.
