The Fund has already raised close to 15 million in just under seven months, well in excess of its initial target of 10 million. The Fund is a 10-year UK limited partnership focusing on smaller development capital and buy-out opportunities in the UK. Bestport is aiming to raise a total of up to 30m by final close, which is expected to be in the second half of 2006. The investors to date are a mixture of large family offices and wealthy individuals including a number of entrepreneurs that the Bestport founders have backed in the past as well as several investors in funds previously managed by the founders. Serial entrepreneur and one of the cornerstone investors Robert Gaines-Cooper said from his overseas base: I decided to invest in Bestports inaugural Fund on the basis of the strong track record of the Bestport team and their focus on a segment of the development capital market with substantial opportunity that remains under-serviced and under-supplied. The Fund aims to provide between 0.25m and 2m of equity funding to UK companies typically with a turnover run-rate between 0.5m and 10m and strong growth prospects through organic growth and/or acquisitions. Bestport considers companies in all sectors but is particularly active in business services, healthcare and technology markets. James Stoddart, joint Managing Partner, commented: We are delighted to complete a relatively quick first close of the Fund as we have a number of interesting deal prospects in the pipeline including two advanced prospects in the healthcare services space. The UK market for smaller development capital investing is very attractive as it is significantly less competitive than the mid market space and there is a strong entrepreneurial culture in the UK.
