At Blenheim Chalcot, we invest more than just funds. We invest our knowledge and experience, our ideas and infrastructure. Our ventures are at the forefront of a multitude of industries being disrupted by digital, including FinTech, EdTech, GovTech, Media, Sport, Charity and more.
We are highly entrepreneurial and seek opportunities where digital technologies can disrupt major markets. Ventures we have built include ClearScore, Salary Finance, Modulr and the Rajasthan Royals cricket team.
Many of the companies within the portfolio have materialised from ideas conceived and launched by us, and we have over 4,000 employees supporting their growth and development. Our assets under management stand at more than £1.8bn and total portfolio revenue is over £500 million.
We work closely with investment and strategic partners including PayPal, FIS, L&G, Tencent, Experian, Google, Worldpay, Imperial College and some of the leading venture capital and private equity companies internationally.
Our central team, Venture Builder Services (VBS), exists to support our ventures to be successful quickly, sustainably and with access to best-practice tools, solutions and expertise. We provide a range of services to help new businesses get off the ground, including technology, growth, talent, finance, legal and tax.
15% of our partnerships and ventures are charities. These include the British Asian Trust, Babyzone and OnSide Youth Zones. In the same way that we support our ventures, our Partners provide direct hands-on support to these charities by being active board members and offering expert advice.
