Lifted Ventures has announced a one-year extension of its partnership with the British Business Bank, reinforcing a shared commitment to building a more diverse and inclusive angel investment ecosystem across the UK.

The continued collaboration will further scale the Lifted Ventures Angel Network, increasing regional investment capacity and accelerating the activation of women angel investors nationwide. The partnership is designed to broaden participation in early-stage investment and ensure greater access to capital for female founders across all UK regions.

Building on the success of the initial partnership, both organisations will deepen their focus on addressing long-standing gaps in the early-stage funding landscape particularly the underrepresentation of women as both investors and recipients of angel capital.
