	IN Showjumpers	Showjumping horses	Startup	£ 500k to 1m	Envestors London
What we do:		Invest in showjumping horses which are sold for a profit after being managed by world class team
Company Snapshot:		Most people have heard of investing in race horses, but IN Showjumpers One Ltd (INSO) enables private individuals to access a portfolio of high quality showjumping horses possessing world championship or Olympic potential. The Company is led by an experienced team, which includes two global industry leaders, with a proven track record in buying, producing and selling high quality showjumping horses for profit. The principal objective of INSO is to deliver returns to investors after five years. The asset backing of the underlying assets, showjumping horses, makes the Company an alternative asset class investment worthy of consideration. As an asset class, top quality showjumping horses are not correlated to the world stock and bond markets and like most other truly alternative investments are therefore not linked to the same cycles as the main stock or bond investment markets.

	Formicary Collaboration Group	Technology / IT / Software	Growth	£ 1m to 2m	Envestors London
What we do:		Collaboration software to rescue “knowledge workers” in from being buried under a mountain of emails
Company Snapshot:		Using email as a conversation tool results in information overload, especially where people “reply to all” and requires a lot of time and effort in filtering the information between what is important and needs action, what is simply information to consume, and what is completely irrelevant to a user’s job. Users end up spending more time in Outlook than they do actually doing productive work. FCG is a spinout from Formicary Limited a £10m t/o consulting business. FCG has developed MindLink, a piece of collaboration already used by over a dozen blue-chip companies, enabling teams to share relevant and timely information with the right people in a way they are comfortable with, thus increasing productivity. The team behind FCG, a Microsoft Gold Partner, has more than ten years experience working with many of the primary adopters of Group Chat, including most of the Tier One Investment Banks. FCG’s solutions are fully compatible with Microsoft Lync 2010.

	Elevision	Media	Early stage	$ 1m to 2m	Dubai and the Middle East
What we do:		A digital media company advertising in elevators of high end commercial/residential buildings.
Company Snapshot:		ELEVISION MEDIA Elevision is an innovative Digital Media Network broadcasting news, information & advertisements inside the elevator’s of Dubai’s best commercial and residential towers. Elevision solves two problems; the need for advertisers to locate and reach consumers; and the need for property owners to effectively communicate with tenants. In the captive elevator environment occupants are attentive and happy to watch the Elevision screens. By broadcasting the day’s top news stories tenants are kept informed and engaged, and most important to the advertiser, their eyes are kept on the screen insuring they absorb the advertising message! Elevision provides property owners a way to reach and communicate with tenants effectively and in real-time by delivering building specific messages directly into the elevator. This state of the art wireless technology creates an intelligent building while enhancing property image. Elevision operates in a very niche area, this differentiator positions Elevision well to experience significant and rapid growth. This gap in the market has created a window of opportunity to lay a foundation from which to build on for years to come.

	Real Status Ltd	Technology / IT / Software	Early stage	£ 500k to 1m	Envestors London
What we do:		Technology: IT network and systems 3D visualisation
Company Snapshot:		Royce Murphy, CEO, presented Real-Status at our event in November 2010 securing £1.38m. Previously, Royce has built and sold two software companies. A key problem for CTOs of large companies is the ability to understand the dependencies between thousands of applications, servers, switches and other devices in their IT infrastructure. Real-Status’ product HyperGlance uses computer games software technology to create a real-time 3D model of a large company’s entire ICT infrastructure showing the inter-dependencies. However, companies already spend $1.3 billion on “dashboard and analysis software”, and 75% are not satisfied with their end-end IT management. HyperGlance allows CTOs to navigate through their networks and base key IT management decisions on up-to-date information. The Company completed customer testing in Q2, has started winning end customers and resellers, and Citrix and Oracle are already valuating HyperGlance.
