Eos exists to support founders.
Innovation in science, engineering and technology is key to improving quality of life, making agriculture and aquaculture more sustainable, mitigating climate change, finding new energy solutions and much more.
Commercial returns as well as positive impact are the key metrics for all of our work. By addressing key issues facing society, you are by definition addressing markets of scale.
Deep roots in Scotland, with a global perspective.

Team member, Title
Connections with world-class research universities at home and across the UK remains crucial for our work, as well as networks into industry. Finding, understanding, and scaling innovation is not something that can be done at arm’s length and because all of our investments have global application, we spend an equal amount of time supporting them to scale into larger commercial markets.
Most funders are not willing to back nascent ventures until they have a financial track record, because they don’t understand the potential and IP underlying knowledge intensive companies. Eos does. We firmly believe that commercial returns should be commensurate with early-stage risk, and to realise these returns you need sector specialism and the capacity to work closely with portfolio companies.
Trust, hard work and discretion are important values at Eos. Everyone who is a part of the Eos eco-system has a level of altruistic motivation, a fascination in the impact these businesses can have within industry and within society. Commercial returns are clearly also important and so knowing that Eos has the depth of knowledge, network, and work ethic to support companies is of paramount importance.
We welcome new founders and new investors who share the belief that scientific, engineering and technology innovations are the best way to balance commercial success whilst also having positive impact on major global issues.

The Eos team is made up of founders, scientists, record breakers, industry leaders, and government advisors.

Eos invests through an Angel Syndicate, an EIS Innovation Fund & Venture Partnerships.
We also have Scottish Enterprise co-investment status. The breadth of this co-investment is important for scaling, balancing of risk and also to build relationships with people and organisations who can understand and help our businesses grow over the long term.
