Milamber has significant experience and an excellent track record, firstly in identifying companies

The Investment Opportunity This is an exciting opportunity from Innvotec Limited “Innvotec” to invest in the Milamber EdTech Fund (“EdTech” or the “Fund”).

As one of the longest established SEIS / EIS Managers in the Capital Growth sector, Innvotec is ideally placed to manage this exciting new Fund.

Similarly, Milamber Ventures Plc (“Milamber”) as a leader in the EdTech sector, is the ideal Strategic Partner for the Fund. Put simply, the focus of the Fund is to create a portfolio of high-value SEIS / EIS qualifying investments in EdTech companies that have been identified and reviewed by Milamber as part of the joint due diligence process.

Importantly, after investments have been made, Milamber principals will continue to play a key role in the on-going development of the companies and will oversee and help steer them to potentially very profitable exits.

The Fund will have a well-balanced portfolio, from both a balanced “risk perspective” and in terms of the targeted time to exit.

This should ensure that Investors receive a flow of returns after the third year of investment.

Why Invest?In the crowded world of SEIS and EIS Funds, the EdTech Fund is innovative, whilst combin-ing both simplicity and transparency.

Reasons why investors should consider the Fund include:

• A capital growth fund that aims to make significant tax free gains across a portfolio of companies in a specific sector - Ed Tech.

• Innvotec is targeting a minimum of 120% return on the gross cost (i.e. after tax re-liefs) of investment across the portfolio.

• Ongoing active management of the port-folio companies, as provided by Milamber helps to reduce risk and enhance prospec-tive returns for Investors.

• It is at the earlier stages of commercial ex-ploitation that there is the greatest potential to generate significant capital appreciation. This is what makes the EdTech Fund such an attractive proposition.

• Milamber and its highly-experienced team helps builds businesses around proprietary technology that is at the “cutting edge” of EdTech, addressing the demand from mar-kets that are truly global.

• Milamber applies rigorous criteria when selecting technologies to exploit.

• The Fund’s objective is to build high-value companies capable of returning to Investors a significant multiple on the cost of each investment made and within a reasonable timeframe.

• The overall performance of prior tax effi-cient funds managed by Innvotec compares favourably against their peer group of EIS funds as well as the FTSE 100.

• The fees and structure of the Fund puts Investors and their interests first.

• An Investor obtains tax relief on 100% of his or her Commitment to the Fund.

• A performance hurdle for the Fund, only rewards the Fund Manager for delivering real and meaningful returns as opposed to rewarding mediocrity.

• Established in 1987, Innvotec has a proven track record in the EIS and SIES sector and is possibly the oldest, independent firm in the UK operating in the Capital Growth sector.

• Minimum investment of £5,000.

Overall, the Fund will provide Investors with a rare combination of experienced capital appre-ciation fund management and entrepreneurial excellence.

exciting new EdTech companies into lucrative international markets.

Milamber generates its own earnings from the Fund predominantly from the Performance Fees which result out of profitable exits from the individual portfolio companies. Through this operating methodology, Milamber directly aligns its own interests with

both the investors and the founders of the portfolio companies.
