Exploring Financial Support for Your Goals
Meet your unique financial needs with tailored support and expert guidance.
Stage Support
Seed
The start of something special
Your idea is coming to life. Early feedback is positive from your personal networks and first customers.
Version28 will work with you to form a Plan and Pitch that not only gets you noticed but speaks the investor language and joins the dots between potential and success.
Series A
Make your mark on the market
Your start-up is gathering momentum and you know funding is what you need to really turn the dial.
We'll help you position your business in a way that stands out and gives investors confidence that you're ready to truly disrupt your space and gain market share.
Series B
Become a recognized brand
You've got market proof points and a track record. Major investors are starting to take notice. Version28 will help you tell your story so far and translate your data into robust financial and marketing plans that plot the path to IPO.
Our network
Venture Capital
Venture Capital firms are looking for the key indicators of your start-up's future success. Market conditions and trends, product and service differentiators, you and your team are all factors. Decisions won't be made lightly.
Journey
If your business has real potential, it's a question of reaching and engaging the right VCs in the right way. Version28 provides end-to-end support on your VC funding journey.
UK Government
Our specialist partners know the criteria and approach to position your business for government funding. And if upfront funding isn't viable, Research & Development tax credits can take your business to the next level.
Grants
Grants and R&D credits can be more feasible than you think, but professional support is essential.
Angel Investors
Angels invest in a start-up's founders as much as potential profits. Whilst metrics and presentation are still important, a conversational approach is usually best.
Connect
We'll help you identify and reach the Angel Investors most likely to understand and connect with you and your business.
Private Finance
Dependent on your business and its sales model, Private Financing can be a great alternative to growing your business without sacrificing equity.
Approach
Whilst Finance companies don't receive many opportunities from start-ups, they can be attractive propositions for them. The approach is different, but we'll help you build a solid case and repayment structure nested in your business and marketing plan.

PITCH DECK
There is of course no magic pitch deck that gets you instant enquiries and offers. So we don't just use one template for all. Our approach is to understand you and your business, match with the must-haves for investors, and then express your start-up's personality in a unique way.
Whether you'd like a deck from scratch or feel there's room for improvement with your current deck, we'll work with you to create a deck that encapsulates you and your business and tells a story investors can connect with.
FINANCIAL PLAN
Financial plans can be tricky for young businesses, and they're a common source of scrutiny and red flags for investors.
Version28 will help bring your data-points together and convey them in a plan that's dynamic and shows investors an output for all possible futures.
MARKETING PLAN
A solid marketing plan is key to attracting investment (and marketing successfully). The majority of plans are rarely executed to the letter, and cost and scope creep is common.
The best solution is to create a plan that is data-driven from start to finish. We'll help you understand your upfront industry metrics, audience behaviours and channels, to put together a plan that's realistic and measured at key intervals; so your outcomes, like Return on Ad Spend and Cost Per Acquisition, are optimised and clear for investors to see.
