Nexus Investments

Nexus Investments operates as a venture capital firm specializing in Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) qualifying investments. The firm identifies and backs early-stage and scale-up companies across specific sectors including Data, Digital, Education, and Health. Employing a fund management approach, Nexus Investments aims to achieve diversification for its investors while providing portfolio companies with strategic and operational support beyond mere capital infusion.

The firm was founded in late 2013 by Matthew O'Kane and Harry Hyman, establishing it as a dedicated investment division within the broader Nexus Group. This initiative leveraged the Nexus Group's extensive experience, which dates back to its founding in 1994, in fostering and scaling entrepreneurial ventures. O'Kane joined Hyman to create this EIS-focused investment arm, building upon a deep understanding of early-stage business development.

Nexus Investments serves both EIS investors seeking diversified opportunities and founder-started businesses aiming for capital and strategic guidance. The firm's long-term vision is to continually identify and co-invest in promising UK companies, assisting them through critical growth phases and ensuring effective utilization of funds to achieve their ambitious objectives. They remain committed to supporting innovation within their target sectors.
