About us
Our mission is to enable long-term investment in innovative companies across the UK led by ambitious entrepreneurs. The UK provides a fertile ground for innovation to thrive, but a lack of access to patient capital continues to hold back some UK companies from scaling up and fulfilling their commercial potential. British Patient Capital will enable greater availability of this type of long-term finance and will help build the UK’s innovation economy. British Patient Capital will be developed as a separate subsidiary of the British Business Bank and builds on a successful 10-year heritage of investing £1bn into UK venture and growth capital.

Our 6th Investment Forum brought together leading venture capital fund managers, institutional investors, and high growth companies to celebrate and discuss the future of UK innovation 🚀 And with over 180 guests, it’s been the biggest one to date 💪 The UK venture capital market had a challenging 12 months, but the conversations at the forum were full of optimism for what’s ahead in 2025 – including the opportunities created by the Mansion House reforms. As the UK’s largest domestic investor in venture and venture growth, we’re committed to enabling long-term investment in world-class, innovative businesses across the UK. A big thank you to everyone who joined us and we’re looking forward to seeing you next year!

Great to see that life sciences funds outperforming others when measuring realised returns, which is significant considering this is a sector often requiring extensive upfront R&D before commercialising. VC Returns 2024 report from the Brisith Business Bank provides useful and important insight into the UK venture capital ecosystem #VCReturns24 👇

British Business Bank’s UK Venture Capital Financial Returns 2024 report shows a positive outlook for life sciences 📈 Life sciences funds have outperformed others with realised returns, showing their resilience and potential. This is significant considering this is a sector often requiring extensive upfront R&D before commercialising 🔬 It's also great to see that British Patient Capital-baked funds are delivering higher median returns than the market across key performance metrics. This shows we are delivering on fueling long-term investments in the UK’s high-potential, innovative companies 🚀 Read our full response to the report's findings here: https://lnkd.in/dnXxssCc #VentureCapital #LifeSciences #BritishPatientCapital #Innovation #Investment

#ICYMI: We’ve made an £8m investment into Tokamak Energy as part of a $125m financing round. The investment, made via our Future Fund: Breakthrough programme, will help accelerate commercialisation of Tokamak's transformative fusion energy. Read more:
Fantastic to welcome UK Chancellor of the Exchequer Rt Hon Rachel Reeves to Tokamak Energy this morning for a major announcement on pension reforms set to unlock billions of pounds of investment into critical infrastructure and private companies, stimulating economic growth. Our CEO Warrick Matthews led a tour of our record-breaking ST40 spherical tokamak, control room, and Demo4 #fusion magnet demonstrator, to see first-hand where we’re developing the technology to deliver clean, secure and affordable #fusionenergy. Our transformative high temperature #superconducting (HTS) magnet technology can deliver new levels of performance and efficiency, not only for fusion, but for applications in scientific research, medicine, renewable energy, mobility and security. The visit follows the Autumn Budget 2024, which promised ‘significant support in 2025-26 for UK fusion energy research, to build on the UK’s position as a global leader in sustainable nuclear energy.’ The UK has long been a pioneer in fusion and spin-out technologies like HTS magnets, which could be worth billions of pounds to the UK economy, helping to build skills and industrial capacity, delivering #energysecurity and powering economic growth. #FusionForAll #CleanEnergyTransition #Innovation
