Polaroid, the international consumer electronics company, has approached Venture Giant, an established angel investors network, to assist them to raise an eight figure investment amount to further develop and launch Polaroid products onto the global arena and take Polaroid to the next level, competing with other mass market products that include HP, Canon and Sony.
Polaroid is one of the world's most famous brands and it's new range of Zero Ink technology are capable of producing photographic quality prints on plain paper without the need of ink cartridges or ribbons which makes the technology truly disruptive to the consumer printer market that has always required replacement of its ink cartridges. Though the amount sought was far above the capital most Angel Investors and private investors would invest in individually, Venture Giant's company Founder, Rishi Anand was confident that he could secure interested parties from his network of Angel Investors, Private investors and Venture Capitalists that had taken him over three years to build. Investors from the Venture Giant network include private individuals from the Sunday Times Richlist, one of the original founders of Skype, a former Director of Goldman Sachs and PE's with over £350m of assets under management.
Since Venture Giant was launched in the third quarter of 2008, the online Angel Investors network has gone from strength to strength and has successfully featured over 1000 Investment proposals from UK businesses that are seeking to get in touch with high calibre business investors. As a result of this Venture Giant has been uniquely positioned to see the real growth story of UK tech start-ups in spite of what the current GDP figures of the UK may seem to suggest to the general public. Polaroid's success is not an isolated case and more and more UK tech start-up companies set up during the recession have been growing at incredible paces.
'British Technology companies are growing in spite of the recessionary environment; we see it with established British tech companies including Arm holdings, Sage, and Autonomy. These are just a few examples of established Giants in the UK that are exploding in growth but this is also being reflected with start-up technology companies that have serious growth prospects. I personally hear more optimism from tech start-ups on the UK economy then I do from the media overall.' Company director, Rishi Anand recently stated. Venture Giant currently boasts a total pool of combined investment capital available of just over £700m from their network of registered Investors and Venture Capitalists that are actively looking to invest in UK based pre-revenue seed concepts, early stage start-ups and established businesses and Venture Giant has proven to be the ideal meeting ground for both parties.
According to Barclays Wealth, there are now 619,000 Millionaires currently residing in the UK (1st Quarter 2011) and according to some estimations only 5% of those Millionaires would class themselves as Business Angel Investors. These high net worth individuals have become increasingly private and this has made it difficult for entrepreneurs to locate these individuals for the funding of their small businesses and Start-ups. Venture Giant however has been uniquely positioned to attract these private investors and has seen its registered investor capital pool explode from £60m in 2008 to over £700m.
