PORTFOLIO
Zwift
Back in 2013, when Blackberry phones were still a thing, we met a founder, Eric, who had a question: What if people actually wanted to ride indoors alongside millions of others?
And so Zwift was launched and we began our long relationship with the company.
Zwift exists to make sport fun and accessible, increasing participation across all ages. It does this by bringing fitness on demand by combining hardware with a gamified social virtual experience. In a world moving increasingly on-line we remain excited at Zwift’s position in the industry and potential to dominate the digital fitness sector.

Today, their business has a presence in UK, Asia and USA, and their baby, drinks and lifestyle brands are sold direct to customers and through various channels.
Supersapiens
Supersapiens is on a mission to optimise people’s health and performance by helping people understand their glucose.
Starting in sports, they are moving into the diabetic world and aspire to expand further in metabolic and health markets. We’re excited about the potential of their technology to measure much more than just glucose.
With Abbott as their strategic partner Supersapiens is well placed to win in a space increasingly recognised as a fundamental pillar to good health and elite performance.
Big Drop Brewing Co.
Award winning, naturally brewed, alcohol free beer that tastes great.
The best tasting AF liquid we have tasted, and one that can play a big role in helping us live healthier lives, by consuming less alcohol and sugar.
Clippd
In Golf’s connected future, Clippd makes sense of all the data.
It aggregates all the performance data available and gives actionable insights to transform your game. We’ve been working with the team behind it since 2017, and can see their potential to grow far beyond just golf.
With PGA, NCAA and industry partnerships established, and many more on the horizon, Clippd is well on the way to become the cornerstone of the golfing industry.
Ocushield
‘I want to build the world’s first digital eyecare brand’.
The Dragon’s Den team didn’t hear that it was more than just a blue light filter product company.
Ocushield exists to help customers understand their eye health, then to help them maintain or improve it.
Mous
Mous is on a mission to help us live better with technology as it becomes a bigger and bigger part of our lives.
We met the team in 2018 when the founder jumped into the room with a baseball bat!
The team is obsessed with quality, functionality and design, refusing to compromise on a single element. Having conquered the phone case, they are now on a mission to deliver best in class products in more categories – beginning with bags.
Nice Rice
Nice Rice has big ambitions: if the world shifted agricultural practices, the environmental impact would be the same as removing most of the cars, buses and trucks off the road.
Nice Rice is on a mission to inform the world about the problems of rice cultivation and to allow people to act upon it.
It tastes the best, it’s the same price and eating it saves the planet… no brainer!
