Invest in transformative tech companies
MMC manages funds for private individuals and institutions and has circa $1.2 billion under management. Across all our Funds we back companies that are transforming industries, innovating with nascent, fast-evolving technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI) and blockchain to reshape entire sectors. These are the businesses MMC identifies and works with to scale.
EIS Funds
We believe that technology will change the world for the better. We are drawn to the companies that are rethinking fundamentals, redefining the dynamics of their sector, and have the potential to scale rapidly.
MMC's EIS Funds offer investors the opportunity to invest in a portfolio of these transformative companies that are changing the face of society: challenging and replacing cultural and business norms, popularising new customer behaviours, inventing new industries, creating new jobs, and generating huge value in the process.
Under the Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) these investments will also qualify for a range of tax reliefs (details below). MMC will always make investment decisions based solely on its commercial merits. However, the EIS overlay enables MMC to reduce the downside risk and enhance investor returns.
The objective of the MMC EIS Funds is significant capital growth, targeting a return of 3x+ on each investor’s portfolio.
The MMC EIS Funds are currently closed to new investment. The funds will be open, and available, for investors later in the 2022/23 tax year.

We dig deeper
At MMC we do our homework, going deeper into new technologies and emerging business models using our dedicated in-house research capability.
We use this research to inform our investment thinking and process. We use a proactive deal sourcing model to run an outreach programme and to identify the most promising companies, creating a source of proprietary deal flow.
As a result, MMC can provide access to the companies utilising these new technologies to create significant value and potentially outsized returns.
