EV opens Birmingham city centre office
06/11/2009
EV, the UK-based venture and growth capital fund manager has opened a Birmingham city centre office, to strengthen its presence and build networks in the East & West Midlands and Southern regions.
The office opening, at premises on Temple Row in the heart of the city’s financial district, comes after EV announced that, following recent successful fundraisings, it is now in the market to provide investment of up to £2 million to new and existing SMEs located throughout the UK regions.
Jonathan Diggines, Chief Executive of EV, commented, “EV has been active in the Midlands for some time, and our new Growth Funds are targeting SME investments across the UK. It is therefore a significant step for us to open our office in Birmingham, building on our network of offices in the North of England.
The recent appointment of Simon Ward, well known in the Midlands as an experienced venture capitalist, further extends our capability, enabling us to identify suitable investment opportunities and to manage them over the years to come”.
