What we look for
We typically focus on growth-stage companies raising Series A, B, and C rounds, where the core product has gained traction and the business is moving into repeatable scale.
About Jervois Hillier
Growth capital for companies that are ready to scale.
Jervois Hillier is part of the Up Technology group and is focused on growth-stage companies. We back businesses that have moved beyond early validation and are building from product-market fit into sustained expansion.
Focus
Built for growth-stage businesses.
Our focus is on companies that have demonstrated product-market fit and are entering a stage where additional capital can accelerate commercial execution, product depth, and market expansion.
What we avoid
We do not invest in pre-seed or seed-stage companies. Our approach is directed toward businesses that have moved beyond concept risk and early experimentation.
How we engage
We support entrepreneurs with capital, alignment, and long-term perspective, while not taking board seats as part of our standard approach.
Approach
Entrepreneur-first, without operational overreach.
We aim to support founders and management teams as they scale, while allowing them to retain operating ownership of the business. Our preference is to be constructive, aligned, and long-term rather than highly interventionist.
