About SFC Capital

SFC Capital is the UK's most active SEIS fund, backing early-stage startups with pre-seed and seed investments. They specialise in SEIS-qualifying companies, helping founders access tax-efficient investment while providing hands-on support to scale their businesses.

With over 500 investments to date, SFC Capital has built a reputation as the go-to fund for UK founders seeking SEIS investment. They provide portfolio companies with strategic guidance, mentorship, and operational support — all with a founder-first approach.

“FounderCatalyst has been great for our fund and portfolio companies. It saves the founders time and cost on legal paperwork, meaning more capital can support company growth rather than covering legal fees. From our side, it also helps streamline the investment process, with more consistent documentation and less time spent on manual administration. Overall, it makes the process simpler and more efficient for everyone involved.”
