Ours have spent years on the investor side of the table, so we know what your shareholders want to see and how to prepare for the next round. We work alongside your founders and executive team, not instead of them. ![Non-Executive Director Support](https://217255.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/217255/hubfs/Sapphire%20venture%20capital%20funds.png?width=357&height=356&name=Sapphire%20venture%20capital%20funds.png) #### Strengthen your board as you grow. ###### Who it is for Growing businesses that need experienced board-level challenge and governance, usually after a SEIS, EIS or angel round.
