Background

Cambridge Capital Group is a network of business angels, private investors and family offices based around Cambridge's technology sector. Established in 2000, it connects young technology businesses with investors who bring commercial experience as well as private capital. Its members also draw on connections across other British innovation centres.

The group's team scouts and screens businesses before presenting them at closed events, held both in person and online. Members use those meetings to examine opportunities in early-stage technology companies. Founder Struan McDougall and director Jayne Parker manage the group. Its role combines finding potential investments, assessing companies and bringing founders into contact with experienced private investors.
