ESM is a club of private investors backing UK technology companies, led by Steven Morris, a technology founder turned angel investor. Members co-invest alongside the team, typically £250k to £1m per company, with SEIS and EIS tax advantages. No fees to join, and no fees to attend.
Steven Morris co-founded a technology company, sold it, became an angel investor and now leads ESM. ESM members exited TS3 Services in 2011 at 10×. That experience comes with every deal.
Steven Morris invests in every company members back, at the same time and on the same terms. If a deal isn’t good enough for us, it doesn’t reach you.
ESM typically leads the investment round and provides board representation, so members are never passengers.
Unlike many syndicates, ESM doesn’t charge members to join or to cover event costs. Every member sees each opportunity and decides for themselves.
Members see every opportunity, decide on each one for themselves, and invest directly using legal investment documents, holding their own shares in the companies they back.
Our involvement doesn’t stop at the point of investment: board representation and access to the team’s operating experience.
Consistent selection and portfolio-management criteria, crafted from the team’s own experience as founders of technology businesses.
