Business Venture Partners

Business Venture Partners is an Irish investment firm founded in 2004 that provides tailored equity and debt funding to companies from seed through to growth stage. Its investment focus spans climate technology, health technology, mobility technology and emerging technology, with sector coverage that extends to energy, industry, agriculture and food, and technology-enabled healthcare and patient-centred care. The firm has backed more than 80 companies.

Beyond direct company investment, Business Venture Partners manages EIIS investment funds - vehicles structured under Ireland's Employment and Investment Incentive Scheme, which give investors tax-efficient routes to share in the growth of Irish companies. It was among the first dedicated EIIS investment fund managers in Ireland. Alongside these funds it operates a private investor network that provides further investment opportunities. Corporate finance advisory is part of the firm's heritage, reflecting a boutique background that informs its approach to structuring capital solutions for companies at different stages.

The firm's stated approach is to offer hands-on practical support where it is useful while trusting founders to lead their businesses. Its mandate is focused on backing ambitious Irish companies, and its geographic presence is concentrated in Ireland. Website: https://www.bvp.ie/
