Future Planet Capital Regional

Overview

Future Planet Capital Regional, formerly known as Midven Limited, is a Birmingham-based venture capital firm specializing in investments in high-growth small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across the United Kingdom. The firm focuses on sectors such as technology, healthcare, engineering, manufacturing, distribution, and biotechnology, providing funding to support the development and expansion of innovative businesses. Operating under the 'more than money' approach, Future Planet Capital Regional offers not only financial support but also strategic guidance to its portfolio companies. The firm manages several funds, including the £25 million West Midlands Co-Investment Fund, which invests equity of up to £1 million in innovative high-growth SMEs in the West Midlands area. This fund operates over a ten-year period and focuses on bringing new private investor money to the region, using a co-investment model to invest alongside business angels and other private sector investors on a minimum £1 to £1 basis. In April 2021, Midven Limited was acquired by Future Planet Capital, leading to the unification of the two entities under the single brand of Future Planet Capital Regional. This strategic move aims to strengthen the firm's commitment to regional investment and enhance its support for businesses in the West Midlands. The integration allows the firm to better leverage its combined expertise and resources, ultimately strengthening its offering to the region's most ambitious entrepreneurs.
