Alizoy

What is Alizoy?

Alizoy UK Limited is a venture capital firm that specializes in funding small businesses.

They operate out of London, United Kingdom, and adhere to a distinctive investment approach. Alizoy is not solely focused on revolutionary technologies or market disruptors; instead, they hold the belief that with the correct mix of components, more conventional businesses can yield sufficient returns to garner venture capital support.

They emphasize the importance of professional management and financial transparency in the companies they invest in, ensuring they are actively involved as shareholders to maximize investor returns.

Alizoy UK Limited offers transaction arrangement and ancillary services to Venture Capital Contacts but does not act for clients in any venture capital transactions nor provide investment advice. Potential investees and investors are advised to conduct their own analysis and due diligence and seek independent professional advice on financial, legal, tax, and other relevant matters.

Alizoy's portfolio includes a range of industries, from IT consultancy and software development to online money remittance services.

They also have interests in financial tech, such as a challenger bank seeking seed capital, and various franchises, including Subway and Mailbox. Other supported businesses encompass tyre waste management, trade in biomedical electric items, online goods trade, plumbing trade/supply, adult education, textile import trade, and even beauty salons.

Although they position themselves as champions of traditional business models in the venture capital space, they do include innovative enterprises, such as a tech service that secured a £250K UK Government grant, within their investment portfolio. The team includes professionals like Arsala, who was elevated to Director due to her industry connections, and Solvene Renoult, whose experience and strong industry ties help businesses adopt effective growth strategies. Their operating model is predicated on investment amounts that are both minimum and maximum at £30,000, underlining their commitment to smaller scale ventures.
