Mercia empowers UK businesses to innovate and grow, forging long-term partnerships
Fuelling regional business ambitions, we provide venture capital, business loans and private equity ranging from £100k to £10m to accelerate growth and impact. Our mission is to be the first-choice provider of capital for businesses that typically seek up to £10million. We strive to be a responsible long-term investment partner, pledging far more than capital when we invest in your business.
A decade of building, a future of scaling
Our story
Mercia was founded with a clear thesis: Most of the UK’s most compelling private market opportunities lie outside London.
Our mission was simple – be on the ground in the regions, find the best deals and bring scalable capital to meet them. From our origins in the Midlands, we’ve built one of the UK’s most respected private market investment platforms, with 11 regional offices and a 120+ strong team deploying capital where it matters most.
