Blackfinch Spring VCT PLC recently announced illuma as their Portfolio Company of the Year. The company has shown significant growth and success since Blackfinch Ventures invested in them. According to Richard Harley, Blackfinch Ventures Director, illuma had a strong technology in place and has since executed its enterprise go-to-market strategy effectively, setting up a US sales team and building a large pipeline of companies worldwide that are testing the product. Follow-on funding in 2022 ensured the roadmap could continue at pace.

The company is hosting an insightful session to build adviser confidence in helping multiple generations reach their financial goals tax-efficiently. The session will provide hints and tips to identify generational attitudes towards investing and approaching new clients for Venture investments. As Venture Capital Trusts (VCTs) become more mainstream with younger investors looking for different outcomes, the session will also cover how to assess the diversification of these products to fit client objectives.

The session will feature Tom Jaffrey, Senior Business Development Manager, Mark Brownridge, Strategic Relations Director, Dr Reuben Wilcock, Head of Ventures, and Dr Nic Pillow, Senior Ventures Manager. They will share how an innovative investment process can help drive returns, ensuring advisers are armed with essential information when explaining the investment methodology at Blackfinch to their clients.

For those interested in attending the session, it will be held on Thursday, January 25th at 10:00 and Thursday, February 1st at 14:00. Interested individuals can register for the session on the Blackfinch website.
