Welcome to an Investor Fee Free EIS Fund
Dear Investor
I am delighted to be continuing work with the Highgate team with the launch of Highgate Tech Fund 2. To my mind, the ethos and methodology of the Highgate approach represents the intrinsic sentiment behind the Enterprise Investment Scheme, being to foster and encourage private sector investment into growing British companies. Highgate's unconventional Investor Fee Free charging structure gives investors tax relief on 100% of their funds invested and has 100% of their investment actually put to work earning returns, truly embodying EIS principles. 

Britain has a long history of invention, innovation and exploration over centuries and is responsible for some of the world’s greatest technological achievements. To name but a few - radar, the internal combustion engine, penicillin, the lightbulb, the steam engine, the jet engine, television and then, the more down-to-earth, the lowly rubber band and the lawnmower. All of these have been around for decades but we still use them! A small island but a great competitor on a global scale, with many fearless heroes who dared to do what no man (or woman!) had done before!
Whilst geographical exploration is perhaps a thing of the past, the last two decades particularly of technological innovation in our contemporary society present many opportunities to conquer the next ‘must have’ on a global scale. How do you find the winners? Well, I believe Highgate has those skills. From my personal experience of the Highgate team over a number of years, I have been impressed with their ability and track record.
It is not just about spotting a winning technology but understanding its market and, above all, working with the management to get ahead of the competition, market the product successfully, drive the company forward, add in necessary skills where needed and keep the company on track.
To quote the famous split infinitive,“to boldly go” is not for the faint-hearted but mixed with shrewd and experienced management, hedged by the EIS ‘famous five’ tax breaks, myriad opportunities afforded by technology, with strong market drivers and improving global economics – a true 21st century Fund.
Please do join us in investing – we have put our money ‘where our mouth is’ and want to share the potential for world-beating success with you.
Yours sincerely
Susan Phillips
