Midlands businesses backed
BGF’s Nottingham office is focused on backing ambitious companies and management teams across the East Midlands. We have invested over £180m in the East Midlands to date. We are focused on supporting and accelerating growth, sharing a common passion with the management teams and shareholders we support. Being close to the people and businesses we back is critical. We think differently, we are different. We are minority, non-controlling shareholders, a long-term & flexible funding partner, working collaboratively to build sustainable value growth. We put the business first. We also bring more than just capital. We bring experience in maximising value creation, the network to promote growth through powerful introductions & operational insight, and the support & challenge to build something bigger, together.

We're proud to support businesses in Nottingham and the East Midlands. But, there is always potential to do more to support the businesses located here – from manufacturers and industrial services providers to tech, healthcare, hospitality companies and more." Our local roots and expertise go a long way to help us realise this ambition.
