FAQs

At R8ER, we believe there's no such thing as a silly question, which is why we've taken the liberty to place some answers that may help with some of our more commonly asked questions. If your question cannot be found below, please contact us and a member of our team will reach out to you directly.

What types of companies can apply?

We welcome innovative HealthTech, MedTech and ClimateTech companies raising from £100,000 onwards. Companies should be incorporated and developing a technology or innovation at Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 2 or above.

What happens after I apply?

Your company is matched with five specialists relevant to your technology and sector. Their feedback is combined into a detailed Investment Readiness Report designed to help strengthen your fundraising strategy. Following the review, you decide whether your company is introduced to relevant investors through R8ER.

Who are your investors?

Our network includes family offices, venture capital and private equity funds, institutional investors, private investment firms and high-net-worth individuals. Investors specify their investment preferences, helping ensure companies are only presented to relevant investors.

How do investors find my company?

Companies are introduced only to investors whose investment criteria align with their opportunity, creating more targeted introductions and reducing unnecessary outreach.

What does it cost?

The application fee is £1,500 (VAT exempt), covering the expert insight process and Investment Readiness Report. If you successfully raise investment through a R8ER investor, a 3.6% (VAT exempt) success fee applies.

How long will my company be visible?

Companies remain visible to relevant investors for up to 12 months, and you can request to pause or withdraw your profile at any time.

Can I still raise money elsewhere?

Absolutely. R8ER complements your existing fundraising activity. You remain free to engage with investors inside and outside the platform.

Who can become an investor?

Membership is by invitation and available to qualifying Investment Professionals, Certified High Net Worth Individuals and Certified Sophisticated Investors.
