We are delighted to report that the
Parkwalk Opportunities EIS fund was the largest EIS fund in 2018/19, raising over £60 million.
Importantly, we continue to
average 12 months for a subscription to be fully invested. So the next few weeks is a good time to subscribe to the Parkwalk Opportunities EIS fund as your clients should be fully deployed into investee companies in this tax year, 2019/20, for carry back to 2018/19, making tax planning easier.
In 2018, Parkwalk deployed £64 million into university companies, from seed to later stage companies, and wide range of sectors, such as AI, big data, life science, materials, cleantech, future of mobility, medtech and quantum computing. And our current
investment pipeline is looking strong with c. £30m of opportunities covering those sectors.
The fundraising result caps a fantastic tax year year for Parkwalk in which we won ‘
Best EIS Fund Manager‘ at the EIS Association awards for the 3rd year in a row, and a similar award at Investment Week’s awards for the 2nd time in the last three years.
Finally, we have put together this
Parkwalk video which hopefully brings to life a bit more what we do.
