A London-based alternative investment manager. We run three strategies with a single thesis: rigorous process, patient capital, and the discipline to say no.
Investor enquiryVenn Capital was founded in 2016 by a group of investment professionals who left larger institutions with a shared frustration: that scale had become an end in itself, and that the discipline required to generate genuine risk-adjusted returns was incompatible with the constant pressure to deploy.
We run a small number of concentrated strategies. We take fewer positions than most of our peers. We hold them longer. We are not in the business of being busy. We are in the business of being right, with appropriate humility about how difficult that is.
Concentrated equity long/short strategy. 15–20 positions on each side. UK and European focus with selective global exposure. The original strategy, now in its ninth year.
Opportunistic credit strategy targeting dislocated or complex situations in European leveraged credit. Launched 2020. Closed-ended structure with 5-year investment period.
Growth equity co-investment vehicle targeting European technology and consumer businesses at Series B–D. Typical hold: 4–7 years. First close completed Q4 2024.
Decision-making at Venn is concentrated. Every partner has made a career-level commitment to the strategies they run. We do not have analysts producing memos that filter up to a CIO who deploys capital they didn't research. The person who researched the position makes the call.
We welcome enquiries from institutional investors, family offices, and qualified high-net-worth individuals. Minimum commitment is £500,000 across all strategies.
