Simon Blackaby

Simon Blackaby is an Investor at BGF, a major institutional investment firm where he directs capital toward growth-stage companies operating across the United Kingdom. Within the organization's broader financial mandate, his primary responsibilities involve sourcing, evaluating, and executing transactions for quoted small and micro-cap businesses. BGF functions as one of the most active equity investors in the British market, and Blackaby leverages this platform to provide critical expansion capital to publicly traded entities listed on the London Stock Exchange and its Alternative Investment Market. By targeting the public micro-cap sector, he addresses a specific funding gap for listed enterprises requiring minority investments to scale their operations, enter new markets, or fund strategic acquisitions. His current focus centers on managing these public market allocations and supporting the sustained commercial development of small-cap equities within the BGF portfolio.
