Finbridge Global and Lexham Partners Join Forces to Launch Fintech-Focused SEIS Fund
A new partnership between Finbridge Global and Lexham Partners is set to accelerate early-stage innovation in the fintech sector with the launch of a dedicated SEIS fund, designed to identify, invest in, and support high-potential fintech founders.
Lexham Partners, known for its expertise in financial investment, has created a Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS) fund targeted exclusively at fintech startups. The fund will focus on backing exceptional founders who are developing cutting-edge technology solutions designed for financial institutions.
To identify and select investable fintechs, Lexham has partnered with Finbridge Global: a platform that streamlines the readiness and matching process for startups. Finbridge Global enables founders to create a comprehensive, reusable profile showcasing their product, metrics, and documentation, significantly easing due diligence and investor matching.
The collaboration brings together Lexham’s investment capabilities with Finbridge’s unique automation tools, enabling faster, fairer, and more scalable pathways from idea to investment.
What the Fund is Looking For
- SEIS-eligible fintech startups
- Innovative tech solutions that can serve financial institutions
- Strong founding teams with a clear vision
Through the Finbridge platform, founders can create a profile, upload their pitch deck and key metrics, and gain visibility with investors while retaining full control over who can access their data. Once verified, fintechs can earn an InvestReady badge and participate in monthly Innovation Boards to pitch directly to institutions and investors.
Why This Matters for Welsh Fintechs
This partnership represents a significant opportunity for Welsh fintech startups to access early-stage capital and build long-term relationships with institutional investors. With the ability to reuse credentials and update profiles over time, startups can maintain a living record of their progress and traction, unlocking ongoing value from the Finbridge platform.
Lexham Partners and Finbridge Global have stated that further details about the fund and application process will be unveiled in the coming weeks.
