This gives Nova the capability to perform real “in-person” due diligence on their entrepreneurs before it co-invests, it allows Nova to understand and model the performance funnel and gives Nova control of deal flow. Nova typically sees over 25 opportunities per investment that are made.SEIS & EIS tax incentive:The companies the fund invest in are expected to be SEIS-EIS-qualifying, which makes Nova Cofoundery SEIS & EIS Fund SEIS-EIS suitable for qualifying clients who would potentially benefit from the following tax reliefs:- Up to 30% income tax relief (50% for SEIS)- Tax-free investment growth- Capital gains deferral (or 50% capital gains tax exemption for SEIS)- Inheritance tax relief- Loss reliefWe are proud that in the 12 years we have been building ventures through the Nova Cofoundery, we have invested in everything we have co-founded.
